Actually, I didn't download any pirate software, I just ordered it from guitar center last night. I have dial-up internet, so I'm not able to download large programs. I was able to follow you very helpful instructions, however, I'm not able to efficiently put together anything with reaper, because I'm using the sample stuff that was sent with the line 6 interface.
They sent me gearbox, (which works well) and live light 4.15. This is all I have with reaper. I was only able to import sound files created in live light by opening them in a creative media source player (from my mp3 player) and dragging them from there into Reaper. The problem with this is not only is it time consuming, but the effects from live light are lost, and I'm only able to open the files in the creative media source player if I delete the previous ones saved there. Once I do this, the files are gone, and Reaper displays that track as OFFLINE and then I'm in a rut.
So, I'm sorry you were under the impression that I was an idiot who was going to scam my way through this. That's not the case. I spent $105 on the program, (I figured I'd be able to do my recording straight into Soundwave, and sequence, mix and do everything in it and save some time)
I guess I'll take your advice and return what I just ordered, and get the Traction 2 software.
