With Josh's comment in mind I try to at least narrow down the answer -
Audio bus
This is an auxiliary audio channel (or track). Instead of adjusting each individual channel you have (one for each track) you can send the output of tracks, or create a group that contains selected tracks, and send the mixed output of these to a audio bus. This allow you to ...

The ReaFir plugin that comes with Reaper is pretty excellent. And you don't HAVE to have Reaper to use it, because you can download all of their VST plugins free. ReaPlugs Download
Insert the plugin
Change to "Subtract" mode
Select a range of audio that you can profile the noise to be removed and enable "Repeat" (so that it loops over the noise over and ...

I believe you are looking for REAPER It has an API and its own plugin language you can use. Above and beyond that it is one of the most customizable DAWs out there, and affordable to boot.

less tracks per project.
less plugins opened.
if you use your factory soundcard (the one on your motherboard) you'll probably suffer from latency and a bad signal/noise ratio.
But you still can definitely work with it (music, mixing, and even small movie project(s)).
FYI : when a computer is too limitated for your work, don't forget you can always render ...

It depends on your device. Some Android phones support a headset input through the headphone jack (such as through this device [Traveler Guitar MI-10]). In that case, a simple adapter can allow you to feed an audio line in.
Other devices allow what is called host support for USB. If this is the case, then you may be able to use a USB audio interface if ...

That is Apple's Logic in mixer view.
You can see another view of the mixer under the heading "Pro mixing in all its glory" here.

Here (http://www.cambridge-mt.com/ms-mtk.htm) you can find an online download library of more than 50 unprocessed multitrack projects, all of which are free to use for educational purposes. Each project is provided as a simple ZIP archive containing WAV files at 24-bit/44.1kHz resolution, which can easily be imported into practically any DAW system. In ...

A few quick notes
At stage volumes, you really really want to be using a SSD Drive. You will have issues with normal platter style HDD's at stage volumes due to vibration
Even with a SSD, you're going to want to sit the laptop on some vibration damping type material. Grab some mopads (designed for acoustically decoupling speakers) and sit it on that, ...

You need to connect the MIDI OUT of your MIDI controller keyboard to the MIDI IN of one of the sound modules, then connect the MIDI THROUGH of that sound module to the MIDI IN of the other. You'll need to put each sound module on a separate MIDI channel.
The MIDI output from your track in the DAW software will need to output on the MIDI channel assigned to ...

What you are looking for is a Dugan automixer. This can be acquired as either a hardware processing device, as software inside an existing hardware device such as a mixer, or as a VST plugin.
I strongly don't recommend you attempt to re-engineer the Dugan algorithm with discrete plugins - this will be re-inventing the wheel and will ultimately fail as ...

You have the minimum down already - a laptop, a DAW, and some headphones. You don't need anything else. Other things may be useful to you, but aren't necessary.
If you are classically trained, you may want notation software. But even then, a good notebook and pen will probably do just fine.
Whatever software I end up with, I'd like my process to feel a ...

It's now possible to do this in Ableton Live using a Max for Live device from Chaos Culture:

Phase is one of those things that is a lot more complex in reality than it first seems from the theory. Sound waves are transmitted through oscillating air pressure. Electronically, it is captured as a signal that maps the pressure changes to changes in electrical voltage. If you had a fixed frequency wave, it would look like a sine wave going up and down ...

JACK Audio will do this on Linux, OSX and Windows.
Soundflower is similar, but only works on OSX.
Rewire must be explicitly supported by all applications involved in the audio routing process.

Adobe Audition has this feature:

Yes I made an lv2 plugin to be used with linux daws it's called noise-repellent https://github.com/lucianodato/noise-repellent

Give Matlab a go, there's quite a few resources out there to get you started but if you have programmed at all before you should be able to pick it up fairly easily, I've seen it used mainly in acoustics applications but I'm sure you could find another possibly more creative use.

Maybe http://puredata.info/? Might be easier than javascript for doing complex stuff.

Not really an answer, but a bit long for comments…
To echo Dave's sentiment;
as owner of many old reel-reel machines, gathering dust in a junk room I would heartily agree.
Keep them for if you ever need to rescue something.
I have tape baking facilities for that eventuality, which have seen occasional yet important use over the years.
For all other ...

It's generally expected that you do a little bit of research before asking questions here and that you only ask one question. In this case the manual for this device answers the question quite clearly.
The Amp Out provides a 1/4 inch mono output of
guitar processed with amp modeling and effects and optimized for
connecting to the input of a guitar ...

Vienna Ensemble Pro
Take a look at Vienna Ensemble Pro (VEP, VEPro). There is a Master/Slave feature that let you process VST instruments (and ordinary VST effects) on other computers (and you can mix Macs and PCs).
The master sends MIDI commands to the slave, and the slave returns the result samples. All through a plain cabled ethernet connection.

Yes, audio software, be it a DAW or a live mixing console, do use multithreading and multicore functionality.
Example 1 : Pyramix
MassCore technology “hides” one or more cores in a multiple CPU
computer and then creates a “pipe” directly between the software and
those hidden cores to essentially create an Intel-powered DSP based
system.
Example 2 :...

I used performer for years before eventually switching to logic, and the reason I switched was absolutely no fault of performer's. That program's awesome. I didn't love the stock plugs as much, but i never really used them enough to complain, and there are some better ones now. The last version I used was 7, and it was excellent. Also, the Motunation.com ...

stick with 48/24 without applying any dither? Dither adds noise. Noise * 100 tracks = more noise
Use any DAW. Literally any DAW. They all allow varying degrees of automation, but there is no DAW "sound designers use" (pro tip: everyone uses two or more) - whatever you, yourself, can do it quickest or easiest in, is what you should be using. I'd use a two-...

I recommend looking into a free online course from a site like Coursera .
There are also plenty of books available: The Sound Reinforcement Handbook by Gary Davis or Modern Recording Techniques by Huber could be a good resource for learning about the subjects you mentioned.
