You'll have an easier time of things when Demudi 0.9 comes out in late
December, its comes with all the juicy sound apps and preconfigured for
low latency sound work and is based on Debian. Debian Stable is really too
old for most audio apps, most of which are using GTK 2.0 at this point.

running Debian, stable ;-).
I have only the vaguest idea what I'm doing or what you're suggesting. For
example, I have no idea how to add sources to my sources.list.

might be
wrong. the newest TerminatorX requires GTK2 which if
you're running stable you don't have. I would put some
unstable sources in you'tr sources.list and then try
it. Itmay also help to upgrade to Gnome2, It's well
worth it. An alternative would be to go term's
website and grab an older source for GTK1.2. goodluck!

I tried to apt-get install terminatorX (great,
resonant name), but I got
caught in dependency Hell. I'm running the 2.4

http://mailplus.yahoo.com There's two different pro-level programs,
terminatorX (which I wrote the
quicktoot for), and also Gdam, which is just as
good as PCDJ. Final
scratch pro is really expensive, while terminatorx
and gdam are gpl. Gdam
is quicker to load files and supports mutliple
soundcards (one for
playback and one for cueing). TerminatorX can use
cueing via a stereo
splitter and both also have their own beatmatching
mechanisms.
