+1 on the toyish. In fact that is why the user who asked wants it. It has auto chording (insert a note with the mouse and it chords it). LMMS is already one of the "Extra" apps that shows up when the extra applications menu item is selected. I feel really strongly not for 12.10. 13.04 would be ok. However, I think we should be prepared to get asked (even more than now) why we don't have RG which is the same kind of thing but more professional. There are for that matter, as others have said, a number of other sequencer/daw/whatever applications available. What this user likes about it, aside from auto chord, I think is a low learning curve for his first try at recording. One app does his whole thing, both recording vocals/guitar as well as some synth work. There is no doubt in my mind he could do everything he has done on qtracktor. Just a matter of learning how... a utube howto (not printed) is what he needs. (Len does better with printed, but understands others work differently) I don't know if "it works like x windows application" is a valid reason to call something entry level. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
