First, plug about 4" of Owens Corning 703 in each corner: https://sonicscoop.com/2016/11/10/diy-studio-design-part-2-build-cost-effective-bass-traps/ Then, get some good monitors. Then, focus on getting the sound you want right there in the room first. If you get it right going into the microphone instead of relying on technology to fix it for you, then the tune practically mixes itself. Anything you put on it is just icing. Or ruins it. Conversely, if you record crap, no plugin in the world will fix it. No matter how much gold plating you put on a turd, it's still a pile of $**t. In other words, you can't buy skill at Plugin Boutique.

Stay away from Las Vegas....

Go buy a shaker (< $20!), shake it in front of a mic & be done way before you get done fiddle-farting with trying to fake it. Hell, if money is too tight, throw some beans in a can.

Russian collusion delusion.

It has to be reauthorized every 6 months.

I think I got it figured out. Somehow, Windows Firewall had gotten set to allow Team Viewer on public networks but not private. Weird. I certainly didn't set anything up that way that I remember.

Damn it! I already have it! Don't you hate that?

Zero latency is impossible.

Something like one of y'all have suggested might be the next step. Being able to see the screen from where I am would be a big plus, but not essential. Buying more stuff is really not on the table right now, but I can start researching.

? Make it past 27 and stay off of small aircraft seem to be the two secrets to having a long career....

I use multiple instances of it frequently. It might be helpful if you told us something about your computer specs, settings, etc.

Keepin' it music related:

...is to try a second monitor, keyboard and mouse and string big long cords everywhere! I'm trying to learn to play drums. And trying to record them. Tripping over cymbal stands while making multiple trips back and forth between the drum throne and the desk is a real drag to say the least. So I tried TouchDaw. Worked great. At first. Now I can hardly get it to make a connection at all. It can seriously take longer to get the @#$%^ ***^^% to work than I spend playing. And I need a lot of takes to get it right. What a waste of money. At least it was only $5. I thought, I have a laptop sitting around. Why don't I try TeamViewer. People use it all over the world to remote control another computer. Perfect! So I thought. Worked great. At first. Now I can hardly get it to make a connection at all. It can seriously take longer to get the @#$%^ ***^^% to work than I spend playing. And I need a lot of takes to get it right. What a waste of time. At least it was free. Is there any f***** ing remote control software that actually f*****ing WORKS? For longer than a couple weeks? Or am I just stupid? All I want to do is start & stop my DAW from 10 feet away behind a drum kit. Why is something so simple so difficult? I really don't think this is a network issue, because my laptop/ tablet (depending on which garbage nonworking app I try to use) see each other just fine. As it stands, this $&!t is so frustrating that tripping over the hi hat is actually starting to look like the preferred option!

Oh, for joy....

My question is: what are you trying to fix?

Yes. But, not to be snide, shouldn't you be LISTENING to the drum track ?

Electric is far easier to learn on.

I'm not really sure what the issue is. Use the latest version (which you apparently have) and move on with your life.

Now you can tell everyone you are a professional musician!

You must be using the BandLab app and not Cakewalk.

"Reputable brand" is the key term.
