I used to record all my music using Broadcast2000. I could never get on with Cinellera, Jack/Ardour crashed too often and my machine was too rubbish to run Audacity with no real latency. http://stage.vitaminic.co.uk/onion_jack I've recently started using Ardour (now that Broadcast2000 is getting harder and harder to find in a stable packaged form, I think only SuSE still includes it with their current distro?) which is good fun if a bit intimidating to start with. I've also upgraded my machine, so using Audacity is also less painful than it used to be. It's ideal for sharing projects with non-Linux musicians... Incidentally, are there any Linux musicians in South London? daniel www.o <http://www.onionjack.co.uk> nionjack.co.uk - that's just silly
