I found this in a search for "music composition compensation".
"Salaries also vary because many composers work freelance or contract assignments as opposed to, or in addition to, steady employment. A music director role is one of the most common jobs related to music composition. Music directors nationally earn on average $35,519 per year."
As far as guitars go, I see the requisite list as an LP, Strat & Tele.
I have the JTV Variax modelling guitar for "off the wall stuff" such as a sitar and acoustics (6 and 12 string).
One other plug hung. Skipped it. After scan completed, shut down SO6 and restarted. Both plugs were picked up.
Tomorrow will be my fist test of opening an existing project to how everything flies.
New Pan features (Dual Pan is the best addition IMO)
Lyric Track
Expanded Fader view
Fader Flip
De-Esser
These are worth the $114.21 I paid for the upgrade YMMV.
Reaper is a very nice DAW too. I use it occasionally but Studio One fits my workflow needs a little better.
