> > What software do you use? What hardware do you have connected to your Linux > system(s)? > > Until recently, I used ardour (ardour.org) for my main DAW system, and did so for 2 years. My interface hardware consists of two linked M-audio Delta 1010's, giving me a 16 simultaneous audio stream capability. The delta 1010 uses the ice1712 kernel module, and believe it or not, is 100% compatible. an alsa config script links my two 1010's together so ardour sees 16 inputs, with no problems yet. For plugins, I used about 10 of the hundreds of LADSPA plugins available. JACK is also required for ardour, and is a magical piece of software.
About two weeks ago, a forked (and proprietary) project called "mixbus" was released by Harrison (harrisonconsoles.com). The founder of ardour, Paul Davis is helping them out, too. Mixbus has some crazy-good award-winning summing engines built-in, so I couldn't resist. I'm also now using the LinuxDSP plugins instead of the LADSPA ones, where I can. There's a little more hardware in my audio chain, but I think that's all that is directly related to Linux. Oh, I've been using gentoo on an AMD64 system (quad-core with 4G RAM, and it runs like a charm.) Any more questions? --Jason /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
