let's just say that the "industry standard" tools of the trade are akin to going back in time to the 90's...in a "slam your fingers in a car

door" sort of way.

Did you break your kettle drum again??

That just doesn't sound good in any sort of way.

between that and what i'll probably use, i'll have to bounce back and forth, as each offers stuff i'll need htat the other doesn't have...

i have a 3rd option that would do everything, but it'd suck up more time to get everything set so that i could use it...

it's probably my best bet, though...just to avoid frustration/time loss.

I have no idea what those options might entail, but it sounds stressful. I wish you all the best with it...whatever it is!
