What version of Ardour / JACK is running stable...do 64Studio 2.0 was the most reliable I ever used. Now I run Debian5.0 plus Dure:Dyne overlay/kernel. It feels the same as reliable but is not that solid in terms of integration in the DEbian-Repos so I`d recommend to build Ardour, Calf, Invada and other important stuff on the machine from source. > If you had a single shot at > recording an all time super hit piece of ART, would you trust your > platform to capture it safely and recreate it cleanly? Well--- yes... in 3 years using a Linux machine as a DAW for approx. 800h I had a single case of a crash while recording. And no case in witch recorded material was destroyed by some bogus behaviour of a application.(There was no material destroyed at all that is...). It is slightely different when it comes to editing/arranging/sound-design stuff - big plugins in complex set ups can have unpredictable effects but crashes in heavy work like this are seldom still. best regs HZN -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkquVSoACgkQ1Aecwva1SWOgigCeODN9PNp97bH0X9Hy46bUJixb cKsAoIgavg90UPb3SOazq+I/CA/Uz/8s =ZfQ4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
