I've used this software almost twenty years, some days more and some days less than your regimen, and although I think I'm pretty good at it, I don't claim to have everything at my fingertips. Far from it.

This isn't a bad thing, though. The parts of the program I use regularly, I do know well. The rest, if I run into trouble, is only a question on the forum away.

The forum is so good that, in all those years, I've only had to contact PG Music support twice (and both problems were solved). And of course, then I post the problem and solution on the forum for others.

Your challenge will be ongoing, as well. Every new version, I make it a point to look at each menu option and dialog box, and ask, why is that there? I still discover things I didn't know about on a weekly basis.

Don't be discouraged, though. This is a great problem to have: a program with so much to learn, and so much power, that there is always a new challenge. Perhaps if you asked how long it would take to become proficient, rather than know "everything', it would be an easier question to make a guess at the answer, but that also depends on your skill set.
