Now, here in the UK I get my hearing aid batteries for free.
I'm not suggesting you move here, that might cost a decade's worth of batteries or significantly more. And then there's Brexit.
But there are certain advantages to the NHS system. Not many, I grant you, but free hearing aid batteries is one.
Nothing is free.

If I could only be half as humble as you, my own greatness would soar to the very heigjts of immensity.

I admire your humility.

Cool tune. Sounds a bit like Alice in Chains.

This is something I wrote back when I was in school. It was originally conceived as a film cue for a class I was taking. I tried to just realize it as it was on paper but found that it did not sound the way I thought it did; it was a real mess in places. So, I set about to rework it and naturally it took on a life of it’s own and ended up completely reorchestrated and greatly expanded.
I wrote it out in Muse Score and exported it as MIDI. I then opened it in SONAR and spent a godawful amount of time tweaking it. Then I used Miroslav Philharmonik 2 to play it back. "Mixed, " such that it was, in Mixbus. I had rendered each section (Strings, Brass, Winds & Percussion) separately to better adjust the balance among them. Also a bit of mild parallel compression with IK Multimedia's Fairchild model.
I think it came out okay.

... And in one case, my bandmate found out (the hard way) that he was located right near the broadcast tower of the local NPR station. How did we know? His Fender Bassman (and several of his older ribbon mics, including two Beyer 16os) started picking up the station almost as loud as any audio coming into them! We had to rotate/reorient them (and the guitar cable) in the room to avoid the problem.
Thank [insert moniker for your favorite non-religion-specific deity type being (or nonbeing if you prefer)] it was something at least halfway intelligent .

But you can't fly on the back of a pig.
There's all kinds of people with FAR less computer running SONAR/ Cakewalk without any of these issues at all.

DITCH THAT SOUNDBLASTER AND GET A REAL AUDIO INTERFACE!
Seriously.
Who cares that "it was working before?" It ain't working now. They are known garbage. Get rid of it. Pull it out and smash it with a hammer. And don't tell us you can't afford a real interface; you have an i7 and 24GB of RAM. And Miroslav 2.
No offense, but you are like the guy with a $140,000 Mercedes SL complaining it doesn't run right but instead of putting premium unleaded in the tank like they tell you to, you insist on running the 50/50 mix of turpentine and dirty water from the Cheesy Mart.

8GB is really weak these days. Even 16 is a bit slim.

My bank account (and wife!) thanks them for not having left handed versions.

Another vote for the RODE NT1-A.
Also the MXL R144. This works better on my wife; tames some of the harsh sibilants.

Good job. The mix sounds good even on my phone, so I'm sure it is even better on real speakers.
I end up with timing issues on drums too. And for the same reasons. But they sure are fun to play. Nothing quite like real drums.

She reminds me of Joe. Joe used to love to run part way up a tree and then turn around to look at you like he was saying "check this out, man. Cool, huh?"
He stayed right beside me the whole time I was laid up in bed for two weeks terribly sick, getting up only to eat or use the litter box. I was Joe's official person.
He ended up dying of some condition that messed up his intestines so they wouldn't digest food. Poor guy.

It is of course wise to take reasonable and prudent precautions, but going on the internet is not really all that dangerous if you stay away from websites you probably shouldn't be visiting anyway. You know what I mean.

I write everything out. Then learn it and rehearse it. So by the time recording starts, the tempo is pretty much set.

I hate you guys.

What constitutes a musical score ?

Muse Score is great! To get anything that does more costs hundreds.
