Please add XFCE and LXDE as lighter desktop environments, too. (Although I do like OpenBox.) KDE4 can be a hefty load to have on a music distro.

Thanks for your kind words, Grazie Nicola.
Musix v3 is based comes with KDE 4, we're tweaking it to match our particular desktop. But we don't forget other lighter desktop enviroments as in previous versions, so we have at least IceWM and Openbox (I myself am working on it because it is perfect for save resources for live playing on the UMPC).
Ciao.

Hi Carlos, really great news about musix, thank you!<mailto:csanchezgs@gmail.com>> <mailto:ronaldjstewart@gmail.com>>
I use Ubuntu Studio 10.04 and i'd like to move to Musix in the
future...(to reach my free/libre voices inside)
Many thanks to Musix community for their efforts,
Will Musix 3 come out with Kde still or you're considering another DE ?
Free as in freedom

hi
Our samsung Q1 ultra works well and stable since 2.1... not
much HW around these days so we moved on to Indamixx2 which
has ported nicely with RC3 thanks to Gabriel Beddingfield.
Indamixx2 on sale for $549.00
http://www.indamixx.com/shop-130.html
I wasn't up to date with Indamixx news and... what a surprise
and nice cool product that Transmission 5!
Is it an iPad/Galaxy tab alike tablet? Which one is it?
Really appealing. I take mental note of that for anyone I can
give a piece of advice.
Is just that being in the Musix team, well, I would like to make
this work :). Anyway, this Viliv just ended up in my hands, and
now that I have it for testing I would like to make something
useful of it for portable music.
We do have customers who have hacked on their own mods of
transmission 2.1 on the samsung q1 ultra and have come up
with some nice results.
I have the viliv products here for years as they gave me one
of each to test on for Indamixx 2 back in 2009 but I passed
until something had more CPU and better quality build. The
Viliv had the Z Atom chip and the build waas really
flimsy... certainly not DJ duty or ready for a road gig :)
I didn't notice that this Viliv had a less CPU than Samsung, but
I think is robust, at least is quite heavy. Besides this
hardware problems, I've been able to use it as a looper, multiFX
and recording tool at the same time. Trying to be like a
one-man-band doing drums with Hydrogen or with my hands, bass
with FX or the guitar itself, jamming along and things like that.
If I remember correctly Free had to hack Xorg and do some
cool tweaks to get the touch running correctly and not
wonky. It seems like wonky comes up a lot in touch on the
tablets but we are reporting good results on Indamixx2
albeit beta still and RC3 which I think is totally
acceptable for a lil audio droid that has a lot of features
for music production.
Would love any contact or extended information that can guide me
just a little. Been trying many things and also googling for
more but no luck.
Thank you
Ronald Stewart
Indamixx
Thanks to you, Ronald, and good luck with the new Indamixx
adventure.

Hi all, dear LAUers.
I've been doing some testing with Musix 3
beta (based on Debian
Squeeze)
Where did you get Musix 3 Beta? I can't find
anything higher than
2.1 at their site.

We're working on it right now, there some
testing versions here:
http://wiki.musix.es/index.
php?title=Categor%C3%ADa:
Versiones_de_prueba_de_Musix
<http://wiki.musix.es/index.php?title=Categor%C3%ADa:Versiones_de_prueba_de_Musix>
That wiki page is new for people who wants to
colaborate that is not in the
collaborator/developer's list. There wasn't such
a list before. Sorry but no english version yet,
but soon I hope.
We've been developing version 3 for some time
now, and the reports have been quite favorable,
but we'd like to work on it some more. I myself
hope to include some basic apps I've developed,
and take the opportunity to release them on
Github or similar. But as always... time is what
is needed :).
Regards.

Ah, thanks for the news and the link. I like Musix,
even though the last one that worked on my musicbox
was a beta of Musix 2. The production version of 2
somehow lost the ability to work with the boring old
Intel video hardware that the beta knew how to work
with.
Anyway, I look forward to testing Musix 3!
