Hi Brian,
I don't see why not.
I'm happy with a Banana Pi which is a Dual Core, 700MHz CPU and 1Gb ram.
My only 'beef' with most all Pi boards is, no FAST disk interface directly on
the SOC.
All except the Allwinner A20, R40 and V40 chips which have a SATA interface.
For a well supported Linux, Fedora 28 runs well on the Banana Pi (original).
Ubuntu runs on the Banana Pi M2 Berry but not Fedora, supports Banana Pi M2
Ultra only.
Both these boards cost about $50 AU, the Ultra about $85.
Add a 120Gb SSD and for under $200 you have a very powerful LOW POWER linux box.
A USB audio interface, the Behringer UCA202, the original Burr-Brown USB device.
My 2c.

Evil flourishes when good men do nothing.
