Thanks -- just a couple of links on the jack/ardour + whatever else debian setup for a home machine would be very helpful About me: I am kind of two people: 1. I taught programming in the university for many years (and Im sure you know the utility of academic computer science :-) 2. I grew up playing a real piano (a Steinway!!) and had nothing to do with technology (apart from my lp turntable) Getting these two worlds together is proving more intricate than I imagined eg Since I dont really know whats a synth I am not getting whats a soft synth I guess I need some bare hardware other than my computer but not sure what. For a few days I used my friend's borrowed Tascam US122 which I could use in windows but not linux. I must say that Cubase was educational... Maybe I need that or something like it... What?
