A modest proposal ----

Linda, I feel badly for you. It must be terribly frustrating. It should not be so hard. I suggest that you consider bagging the whole thing and start over with an integrated system. Something like a digital audio workstation might work for you. It is all there and no fussing around with incompatible pieces. A DAW will not have all of the features of a computer based system but it will do a lot. You can get back to making music instead of tearing your hair out. Life is too short for you to have to re-engineer a system like you are trying to do.
