Ardour in Ubuntu

Ardour professional free software audio suite mixing session in ubuntu 7.10 with realtime(rt) kernel and jack running at 64samples latency!!!!

i have live ladspa plugins emulating tube drive,delivering mono to stereo reverb, delay, flangers chorus and all, tape saturation.. on the input channel with less than 1ms latency!
this is not possible in windows.

more to come, this is just the beginning...
watch how commercial recording software starts to look shameful before this free software!

Wheres The Audio??

[delirio1987]

imho 64 studio is the best

[MaghoxFr]

@bassistguy Great, thanks, i think I will give 64studio a try, for all I've heard it runs pretty smoothly

[bassistguy]

@MaghoxFr I can't remember if it was installed by default or not, but I have it installed, and use it.

[MaghoxFr]

@bassistguy hi man, just a stupid question: in 64studio you have synaptic? Because I don't really see myself installing stuff in any other way (noob here?

[bassistguy]

@delirio1987 I totally agree. I recently made a change from 64 Studio to Ubuntu Studio, and I have been having nothing but performance issues. I will be switching back to 64 Studio as soon as I can.

Best audio editor for me: Linux Multimedia Studio (similar to FL Studio)

this looks more like a poor cubase

[locobeis]

you awnsered my question too.

@snezegard:

modern linux audio basically consists of a few components: ALSA (hardware access), jack (application connectivity), LADSPA (application plugins). applications available, among many others, are: ardour (recording), rosegarden4 (cubase-like sequencer), hydrogen (drums). many linux distros offer these packages - ubuntu, fedora, etc.

dynebolic (among others) is a ready-to-run boot-CD with all stuff preconfigured and many more applications, try google and download. have fun :-)

I myself have tried agnula out a tiny bit once. It seems to have quite alot of preinstalled audio software. Agnula from is probably the best audio-oriented linux distribution I've come across. However, their website says that they have stopped working on it. Ubuntu studio is very popular and very active but its geared towards multimedia in general, not just audio.
