Anybody has
ever tried Gentoo for multitrack recording and editing?
Bye,
One year of heavy use of audio on Linux drives me, after having tested all
the audio dedicated distros, to the Gentoo distro with my own low-latency
custom kernel and fluxbox. Perhaps DeMuDi, AudioSlack or Planet CCRMA with FC3 where not tunned enough to work with my USB sound
card so PCI card
should be better supported.
