i own RME hardware, so that's a plus!
i was thinking about building a new machine that would be dedicated
to being an audio maker. the mac running ydl is a 9600, but it has a
digi AMiii card which i'm sure is useless to anything else but digi.
(got the machine to run os x w/ digi's coreaudio though...)
and yes, i'm a professional musician. i've been tryign to sneak
max/msp and supercollider into the pop world for a while now. and now
supercollider server is being developed, there are already working
linux ports of the synth server side (so i'm told) but not the
language side..

hi, i'm a recent linux user, coming from mac
universe. i started by
putting YDL on one of my old macs last summer, but now i'm gonna get
serious.
so my question is: what parts would you recommend for making a Linux box
to run audio on? i realize this is a big field, but any clues are helpful.
also, i'm probably going to use redhat, given that my ydl exprerience is
based on redhat. any precautionary measures?
thanks all
Redhat is an ecellent choice esp if you get into the planet ccrma catalog.
The question of hardware really depends on what your intentions are. I
assume professional from your email footer.
Multitracks cards are basically RME or maudio delta 1010. There are
others choices but they don't get as much of a working so the drivers
may not be as well designed as they could be.
Will you be building a new PC or using your mac?
