I first installed demudi, but ran into depency problems, when I mixed
the repositories with debian ones.
(when I updated jackd, rosegarden was deinstalled and other jokes ;-)
So, my advice is not to mix repositories.
Now I'm running debian with a custom kernel and get most packages from
the debian repository. Since the debian repository doesn't have many
audio-apps,  many of those I'm running are self compiled, but most other
packages are binaries from the debian repos.
Going this way, I have access to a huge amount of precompiled apps, my
audio apps are up-to-date and installation-work is limited.
Regarding 64-architecture, I have no idea.

Regards, Emanuel
