I can't even get the darn thing off the ground. Can anyone help me? I realize it's probably stuff you've dealt with a hundred times but please be patient.

I like to start out by laying down a drum track. According to Cubase's documentation I should be able to use the Drumstick Tool to do this. I can't even locate the Drumstick Tool! I've spent I don't know how many hours on this one thing alone. I'm cracking up.

Can you tell me how to start a project, please? I've used the booklet that came with the software. I've read and reread the pdf file. My god!

Thanks.
