Yup.  yaourt -S cadence and recommendeds, and yaourt/pacman the apps I 
use (right now, just yoshimi).  Also the usual config changes discovered 
with realtimeconfigquickscan, no kernel change needed, no reload.  It 
helps that I use xfce4, which interferes a lot less than other desktops 
have in my past.  I was very surprised at how well it went; in my most 
recent production box build, about a year ago, I had to scrag xfce4 and 
go with LXDE to get rid of some xruns.
