Guitar Tracks Pro 4 USB was really easy to set up and use. It took me just a little bit to get the audio interface to be recognized by the software, but I found it was a conflict in a driver I had on my computer. As sometimes happens when working with lots of stuff hanging off your system as I do, you might have to tweak things.
The applications were a breeze to use. I have worked with several Digital Audio Workstations in the past and so was able to start off right away, but I have always found the Cakewalk interfaces to be pretty intuitive and easy to understand.
What I really liked about Guitar Tracks Pro 4 was having everything right here. I like being able to jump in throw something together quickly and have it working. Later, late at night when everyone was a sleep, I put together some bass loops and drum loops, put on some headphones and just started jamming. For that use alone, it is way worth the price of admission.
If you are looking for the ability to record your guitar, bass, or vocal, if you want to mix your own music, or if you want to throw tracks together so that you can practice your freestyle licks, or any combination of the above, then I very highly recommend Guitar Tracks Pro 4.

I recently purchased this product so I and a couple of friends could record our practice sessions and remix. For all the positive features of this software, there is one major flaw: it can only record from one "in" source at a time. In the case of my fancy E-mu sound card with individual left and right jacks for each of four channels, that means one half of one channel . Not even a guitar and mic at the same time! With a stero jack and splitter you could get two channels max. Still a big drawback if you want to see how your live vocal blend sounds. To cakewalk's credit, they upgraded me to Sonar X1 when I complained and wanted to return the product. X1 is a great product, but I miss the simple interface of GT. If they'd just fix that one thing with GT...

It's absolutely imposible to connect input in GT pro, it's not sharing drivers with another software and you need to be computer gick to be able to use this worsless software! Do not waste your money!!!
