Thanks for the comments, Lee. I don't know why you think that audacity
isn't up to the task? I've used it to do multi track stuff in the past
without issues. And, I've tried ardour in the past ... and this is not
a criticism of ardour, but most likely a comment on my brain size ...
but I really couldn't get it to work. Perhaps if I had more experience
with DAWs I'd be a lot happier with it. As it is, I use audacity to
play back a track (background) while I record myself playing my horn.
Easy.

Best,
