Step One for an important recording is Export the work as WAV (Microsoft) 16-bit and then move it to a safe place. Edit a copy. Once you start adding effects and edit manipulations you could hit a condition you can't reverse. Any mixing between the two tracks is permanent, and as above, never do pro...

In addition, I print to PDF files with encryption when I need to leave them in common operating locations. Screen Shot 2018-...

those "temp" files were at some point written to my hard-drive, so a technical person could search my hard-drive, find those "deleted" files, and still be able to get my SSN, right? Probably not. This isn't like Windows. Macs are based on Unix/Linux. You can still run the Linux ...
