Hi everybody.
I'm an italian bass player and I'd like to record a 4 songs demo for the band
I play in with my PC (with Linux obviously). I'm searching for someone who
can suggest me any documentation/book regarding this argument and/or share
with me his experience (the hardware/software used and so on ...).
Thanks in advance for your reply,
Marco.

Hi Marco,
I'm italian too and I can suggest to use ecasound http://eca.cx for
recording. It depends also on which soundcard you have (2 or more inputs?)
and how do you want to record your band (all togheter or overdubbing). Also
ardour (http://ardour.sf.net) would be a great solution if you can wait
until middle june when it will be released.
If you have more questions you can ask me in italian in private.

What type of setup are you using? I like to use Audacity or Sweep for
audio recording, but recently I found that Cinelerra is stable enough to
use so once I get my alsa-usb problem sorted I'm going to play with some
multitrack mixing on cinelerra. However if you're just doing a live 2
channel recording Audacity would be the easiest way to go (or Sweep as
well).

Depends upon which sound card you have. If you have a simple, single input
card like e.g. a Soundblaster then Audacity is really, really easy to
install and use. If you have a multi-input soundcard you'll want to use
ALSA drivers and any of the apps others have suggested.
I've done a lot of 2-channel recording and some 4-channel recording on my
Delta 4 with Audacity and Ardour. I use Audacity primarily, and highly
recommend it. It's great for recording and also quite good for post
processing and tying multiple tracks together.
