I'm having some issues installing Specimen though... "Package samplerate was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing 'samplerate.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'samplerate' found configure: error: Library requirements (gtk+-2.0 libxml-2.0 jack alsa samplerate sndfile phat) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them." I apologize if this is not the right place to be asking about this... I suppose now you can tell how much of a Linux newbie I actually am...
