My softqware just arrived in the mail. now i am gonna need to buy some more cables and make some computer modifications befor ei can set up my studio but i have beenwarned that cubase is really hard to get the hang of and i am rather intimidated. is there anything you can tell me to start me off, things you have learned in the priocess or things i shoudl be aware of?

The manual is your friend, dont forget about it.
Cubase is not hard to pick up.
I dont know where you heard that but it aint true.
Ive tried a number of software programmes for audio and I found Cubase to be one of the easiet. Especially for editing.
It kicks Pro Tools ass for editing IMO. So much faster and easier.
