Yes I use solid states.

The computer boots up fine.

I don’t use any other tools.

I should probably update the state of affairs.

I have the thing up and running and recording now. I don’t even know what I did to make it happen. All of a sudden it started working.

The two checkboxes that were an issue above still remain sort of an issue. I have the one box checked so that I can actually hear what I’m doing. Other box is blank. However, normally I can’t hear the effects I’m trying to use while I’m recording. I find that to be a real pain because I’m trying to play what I’m hearing and if I’m hearing a dry washed out signal, it’s pretty hard to focus on what I’m doing.

I’m not sure, but I might have a workaround to this issue. On that list of effects there’s something called input track. If you put effects on that, it seems like you can hear the effects you’re going to use (sort of) that way. Not sure if I’m doing this correctly but I need to hear the effects while I’m recording.

Thanks.
