Wow, thanks for the replies guys!
Of the software mentioned here, my biggest wish is for syncability with JACK
transport, so I can send the output of one of the linuxsampler instruments
to the recording software, hit the play button from inside Rosegarden and
have a perfectly synced audio copy of one particular instrument output which
I can then drop back into the sequencer timeline and continue with another
section of the song, thereby freeing up system resources.
Of course, this rules out jack_capture I'm afraid!
I'll take a look at Ecasound/Nama, the tk interface for nama doesn't look
too bad and it's relatively lightweight.
Arnold, I can't find any link to time-machine as audio recording software
via google, just as a filesystem snapshotting app.
Traverso is perhaps a bit overkill for my needs. Also, isn't audacity JACK
aware via pulse audio or somesuch?
Thanks again,
Andrew

Hey list,
I'm in a bit of dilemma here, my machine has only 1 GB of RAM and I'm
running linuxsampler, rakarrack and bristol with rosegarden sequencing all
of them together. As you can imagine, this does stretch my machine's
resources a fair bit, so I find myself needing to bounce-to-audio. Any
software out there that can do this relatively painlessly?
This might be a bug in Rosegarden (10.04.2) or my version of jackdmp
(1.9.6), but when I try to do it in Rosegarden, I found that the recorded
audio tends to record previously recorded wav files and other such oddities.
So I am looking for a relatively lightweight alternative or is this just a
case of 'Yep, just use ardour!'?
Thanks,
Andrew.
