Advice for a beginner, looking to have a go at music recording.
by elsmandino from LinuxQuestions.org on (#556QB)
Hi there.
I am having a look at having a go at a bit of music recording and would be really grateful for some initial advice.
I have a couple of guitars, a midi keyboard and a Steinberg ur22 mkii interface.
I was just wondering where the best place to start is, with regards to distros and software.
I have heard that Ubuntu Studio and AVLinux are worth considering as they utilise a special kernel that minimise latency - which should I use, if either?
With regards to DAW, I am considering having a go at Ardour - is that a good idea?
Any advice before I jump in would be much appreciated.
