24/ 96. More is always better! 😁 Seriously, even though your work will be downsampled for delivery, recording at a higher samplerate is beneficial when it comes to processing.

You'll be REALLY disappointed to find out that you've never owned any software. Ever.

Absolutely. I listen to mostly mainstreamish Metal and Classic Rock. Even when I venture abroad, some of that stuff sneaks in.

How many radical feminists does it take to change a.... "THAT'S NOT FUNNY!!!"

I really don't understand the bullheaded resistance to Windows 10. I get "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." I get not always having to jump on the latest update the minute it drops. I get that those who live on the cutting edge often end up bleeding to death. I get it. But I really don't understand the bullheaded resistance to upgrading after four years. But W7 is going away. W7 is 10 years old. Eventually your beloved antique computer with it's beloved antique OS is going to die. You, at some point WILL upgrade. Either because you choose to or because you are forced to. W10 is not "an atrocious piece of garbage. " It is proven. Scads of people use it regularly and have no problems. The thing about falling behind is that the further you fall behind, the further you fall behind. You become ever more susceptible to attacks as vulnerabilities multiply and become easier and easier to exploit. Your likelihood of things getting corrupted increases. Hardware fails and it's replacement isn't compatible.

I am always disappointed to find out that I would have to spend $400 to use a free library.

Mixbus is intended to be an emulation of Harrison's analog consoles and a tape deck. MIDI is an afterthought tacked on to it. I have the regular Mixbus (Not 32c) and I think it is fantastic for mixing. Instead of a console emulation plugin, the WHOLE DAW is a console emulation. I tried REAPER but it never just quite clicked with me. It is impressive, however. One thing I really do like is the way it can natively handle timing corrections much simpler than SONAR's old Audio Snap. A long time ago I tried some version of Cubase and couldn't make heads or tails of it. Same with Ableton.

One more.
