thanks for all of the pointers guys. I'll mess around with everything and see what works for me.<br><br>

It means it is worthy to work with. For the big time work: go for ardour. There is a debian package for it, and I believe there should be a ubuntu package for it.<br>
For sample-playback: If you don't have sampling libraries yet or if you want to go for others: there is linuxsampler, which can read gigasample version2 sounds. There is hydrogen for drum-sounds, which has its own libraries and lets you create new drum-libraries. there is alsofluidsynth (and qsynth for the graphical interface). Fluidsynth (qsynth respectively) read soundfonts. There are some very ok drum-libraries in SF2 format.<br>
That's just completing to makr Knecht's message, not an either-or alternative.
