Anne;

I apologize for not remembering this sooner. Austin Acton has an article that 
was posted on Desktop Linux and many other websites about building what he 
terms a "Mandrake Audio Workstation." I've never found the time to read that 
article, but I do have it on my personal to-do list. Eventually.....

http://www.linuxdj.com/audio/lad/subscribelau.php3

is one of the links he has posted in the article. That's the mailing list for 
the Linux Audio Users Group. Their home page is at:

http://www.djcj.org/LAU/guide/index.php

Austin's article is available from his homesite.

Hope this is of some help somehow. Audiophiles and those that work 
continuously with sound recording, mixing, and editing will probably be a 
better source of information than we on this list. I wish I knew enough about 
the tools and processes to be of any help but that is, as they say, a project 
for another day. <g>
