what software for home recording?

ive got alot of neat song ideas. while i do play in a band, some of my ideas are too 'out there' to warrant presenting to my band, as they range from funk to drone to death metal. ive had a copy of finale printmusic for a while, i juse havent been able to use it because of theuser priveleges on my computer (.exe's and other programs on a seperate hard drive from regular files, which i need a password to get into since my dads paranoid ). i plan on purchasing a zoom b2.1u multifx pedal soon, which has a usb out port for computer recording, in addition to a copy of cubase le4, which looks like it should do the job for at least being able to record onto my computer

as far as programming drum beats go though, a friend of mine has a copy of toontrack ezdrummer with the drumkit from hell expansion. he uses apple logic pro and a usb microphone for recording, and he imports beats from ezdrummer into logic pro. does anyone know if ez drummer would be compatible in this way with cubase le4?
