To do what you are talking about with low latency and synchronization of tracks you are going to have to use JACK. If you're going to go through the trouble of setting that up and using a modified low-latency kernel you might as well build Ardour. If you;'re running Red Hat and you don't want to go through the hassle of setting it up the way I have you can use the Planet CCRMA packages (http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/guides/planetccrma/). Fernando has got it down to a science. I believe that there are Mandrake, Debian, and Gentoo packages available - check the Ardour mail list archives (http://sourceforge.net/projects/ardour/).
