->Someone mentioned some big publishing companies here (in this thread)
but I doubt they actually use finale for final scores. Apparently
Score is still widely used in the music publishing business.<-
Absolutely. If someone were able to develop a program with the
sophistication and beauty of Score for Linux, I think I could safely
kiss Windows a big goodbye.

Thx a lot for your response, Ron! Yes preamps are
important, we started develloping our own mic-pres here at
ELAK. (www.derton.at)
Sorry for this question: And what about other apps, like
audacity or ecasound ??

ps. i look mainly for recording facilities. editing is
done in sequoia, whitch is my choice for classical
multitrack-editing.

Debian purists will have my hide for this but ... you might try Knoppix. The
CD (you can download the image and burn your own) comes with must everything.
It nicely detects you hardware and gets you up an running.
You can then do a hard-disk installation. Now you have (sort of) a Debian
installation. Using the normal Debian upgrades, you will be a member of the
club.
Much easier than plodding through manually. You may still need to set up alsa
yourself if the sound stuff is not correctly identified. But still much
easier.
Knoppix 3.3 is a Woody based (stable plus) installation on a 2.42 kernel.
Knoppix 3.4 is 2.6 kernel based.
Installed this, looking forward to a Linux "Abox".
MIDI controller input lack means of selecting the device.
Audio ouput objects lack means of selecting the output channel.
There are load errors with or without jack, jacklaunch, etc.
So how dows one "play" this beast? :-)

Guys,
Many thanks for the time and effort spent on giving advice, it's much
appreciated.
Basically, you guys have recommended:
-Mandrake + Thac's RPMs (Robert)
-DeMuDi (Tim and Stefano)
-Planet CCRMA (Jan)
..Which basically boils down to: Mandrake vs Debian vs Redhat. Not sure if
it's a wise decision, but I'm then thinking about choosing the distro based
on:
-Is ALSA supported on the distro or did you have to download and install
ALSA separately?
-Did you find the kernel easy to patch for low latency? (I assume all
Thac's, DeMuDi and Planet have some patch set for this).
Any thoughts much appreciated.
Yours,
Alex
PS: starting a new thread soon to briefly explain what note tuning and audio
quantizing is for the ones who are interested, glad to contribute somehow
:-)

This evening turned out to be exceptional. Just three of us were around to
play and Don called early (has an early call in the morning for serious golf).
So at seven the three of us started; second time to find the chords and line
to "Begin the Begin the Beguine"; made progress then switched to "Theme for
the Eulipians" to relax. Me on alto sax; Randall on flute/basss; Don guitar.
Then (big bad, phd drama) John shows up; in a good mood. Then my daugher
Julie and Sher, my wife; both good singers, good ears. Don changed his plan
and kept playing way past 9:00. And at 10:30 he suggested we move down to the
CCI to hear Rodger; I said OK if we take our axes.
All but Sher move there and it clicks. Rodger is fun to play to. Good crowd
and great weather (small neighborhood club; opens to padio in back). Home
by 1:00 listening to "Jazz After Hours" on my Planet-CCRMA machine.
All of the above to say: Thanks audio-folks. Our playing is improving and
Songbird2 (the Linux machine) is a major asset. For me, the major benefit
has been from listening. I'm a student of theory and a ear player. Good
equipment helps. Two fine altos; good flute; Linux powered keyboard, jazz
radio most anytime, ...
So thanks, folks. I enjoyed playing tonight.

Hi,
Recently I have configured amaroK player (from current CVS HEAD) to work
with lirc. All works fine except for seek(int i) command. I suppose this
coomand must seek back/forward some seconds, but seeking back (I have set
argument as "-5") does nothing, and seeking forward (argument is "5")
plays current track from the beginning.
Is anybody more happy here?
