1. What are your top 10 critical "must
have" audio apps?
jackd
qjackctl (for the "Connect" window)
JACK Rack
Ardour
fluidsynth
Aeolus
Hexter
Audacity (or mhwaveedit)
Meterbridge
FLAC
But I'd be willing to trade a couple of those for a decent set of
soundfonts to use with fluidsynth -- I'd like at least a decent grand
piano and Rhodes. Similarly, having all the LADSPA plugins you can
find is useful.
2. What are your top 5 utility apps?
Assuming you mean other tools that I couldn't live without for
music-making:
Python
xterm or rxvt-unicode (i.e. a decent terminal emulator)
ssh
VIM
Firefox
3. Considering a mid powered box, (say 1800mhz, 1
gig ram, etc) what
is your favorite WM or desktop?
XFCE4.
4. How many people *don't* have at least a DVD
read only drive that
you can boot from?
Me. I don't support DRM-encumbered formats.
