Full ACK.

I sent bug reports. I'm not much interested in this software, but a little  
bit. More important IMO is that Macki and Behringer sell it with their  
hardware, so there's a little chance, that hardware vendors care more  
about Linux.

Some from this list call Behringer crap. I can confirm that Behringer is  
far away from the quality of the other gear I own, but I suspect they are  
market leader. The sound quality of some gear is ok, it's just durability  
that can't compare with the other gear I own. I own gear that is 30 years  
old and never needed to be repaired, I had to repair the mixer I own after  
3 years.

Unfortunately Traktion doesn't run on Ubuntu yet. At least not on my  
Precise and Quantal and somebody else from this list reported the same  
error message.
