What I find a bit of a challenge at present is finding the right balance between the voice track and the music track. MAybe that is where Reaper will come in handy?

Nice track, you have a good voice, but I agree that the mix between vocals and backing is a "challenge" for you. Only you know if it is worth it to you to go to a next level. If you are satisfied with the track then no changes needed, but if you want to improve the audio quality, I believe a some upgrading will do the job. But it will take effort, time and money. But you must appreciate, this advice if coming from a guy who has spent $1,000's on gear and gizmos for music making (...always chasing that elusive tone) - So I may be a little biased wink .

Lets see what others have to say and see where we go from here. Oh and by the way, thanks for sharing the track. Good for you putting yourself out there. grin
