    Les Paul won't stay in tune... Solutions?

    I've got a beautiful 2004 Les Paul Standard Limited Edition model, and I'm discouraged to find that it isn't staying in tune.

    Something that I do when I record in order to promote higher quality songs is record the different parts of individual guitar tracks separately within the same track, so I'll lay down a riff and then cut the recording and either create another track or punch into the same track if timing allows...

    Overloading the Consol/Interface (In a good way)

    Turning Interface on while computer is running?

    In the instruction manual it says that it's bad for the computer and the interface to, "hotfire," the interface, or power it on while the computer is running, but it seems like such a hassle to restart the computer each time I want to connect the interface.
