You should check out Reaper And I'd suggest installing ASIO4All if you aren't using a dedicated audio interface so you can record with relatively low latency. For recording, have you considered trying direct? You could plug your guitar into the line-in on your machine if you have a 1/4 - 1/8 converter and use lePou's amp and IR plugins to get a nice guitar sound. This isn't the idea setup but it should be decent with how awesome guitar amp VSTs are these days.

This EP idea: Will you be accepting shitty music from hacks as well? If so, I'd be down to toss one in.
That sounded way dirtier than intended.
Glad we have some interest!!!!
I thought about it a bit...and here's what I think I'm looking for:
1. Original Track (obviously). Any style is fine, as long as you wrote it. 2. Let's keep it instrumental (no vocals) for the time being. If you're contributing something that has a vocal part in mind, that's fine. Basically, if I get say, 8 songs that could benefit from a vocalist, we may end up doing a release with vocals as well, but will coordinate that after the initial submissions. 3. Make your tune as complete as possible. Make it a song, not a clip. If you play bass, play bass on it. If not, no pressure. Just make it as "complete" as possible. 4. If you don't program drums, PM me or Killzone (provided he's ok with it), and tell us what you're looking for (Tempo, Time Signature, style, length, etc), and maybe we can help. 5. When done, create a soundcloud set with your stems (individual tracks), make it downloadable (and private, if you want), and send me the link so I can download them and mix them. I think it makes sense for all of the tracks to be mixed by one person. If someone else wants to do it, that's cool too, so long as one person does them all. 6. When the project is done, I'll create a bandcamp page for it, do the artwork, and make available for free download, with a $$ contribution option. In the unlikely event that this makes any money at all, we'll split it, or find a good cause to donate it to. (GAB/Billy comes to mind.)
Sound good?
This sounds awesome!

Total noob question regarding stems....how do I upload multiple individual tracks to Soundcloud from a complete mastered song?

Just do mixdowns of the individual parts. You should join indaba it will make everything a lot easier having everything in 1 organized location.
