What is the easiest successor to Cakewalk Home Studio 9?
I've been using Home Studio 9 for 13 years on Windows XP, strictly to edit midi files from outside sources. I use these files as accompaniments for group and choral singing. With XP about to be extinct I'll need to upgrade to Windows 8 I imagine, which would mean upgrading Cakewalk as well. What Cakewalk product would be similar enough to Home Studio 9 that the learning curve wouldn't be too steep? I'm very adept at Home Studio 9 screens for midi editing and would hate to have to learn a whole new method. What do you suggest?
