Hi Re 64studio
For sound Apps its rock solid, and still in alpha I believe.
It's a usable system and we have recorded many songs that have done well
in various charts on the net.
So as a DAW I dont thnik you can fault it!
Make sure you have Linux supported sound cards, which is the same for
any Linux DAW.
I use the RME on my Multitrack machine and this is a superb card.
I would reccomend a duel boot system with a 32bit OS for the other stuff
you'll need to do like OPen office, Flash ( websites get very tiring
with a constant naggin from Firefox to install/update flash!) Plus
you'll need to backup and burn DVD's.
Like I said as a DAW you'll find it fast and stable, and the more people
testing the better.
Good luck
Bob

Yep and 64studio for us who think we need
speed!!
I'm thinking of putting together a new computer, and am thinking that
going down the 64bit road might be a good idea. I would like to play
around with audio on this machine however so i wondering if there are
any "gotcha's" to doing this sort of stuff on a 64 bit machine, for
example any of the major apps (jack, ardour, etc.) not running well on
these platforms?
(I think in principle there's no reason why they wouldn't, however I
have run linux on an ibook for the last few years and have
occasionally had endian issues in the past with some applications,
just wondering if there are equivalents for this sort of problem in
porting 32->64bit. I know nothing about the state of linux on 64bit so
this is possibly a stupid question, if so apologies :)
Also wondering what people's experience with 64studio is?
Cheers.....Steve
