A old friend of my comes for a visit at my home, indeed he is a musician to, he was on the search for a decent Guitar amp for live purpose, play Acoustic Guitar together with a Piano, but he was unhappy about what he found. I told him about Linux audio and what it possible with that, he wone get it.
So I install ubuntu10.4 on his (old PIIII) Laptop and add your ppa's to Synaptic. Run a update and a upgrade, set permissions and were done. He use a Tascam 122 for Guitar input, so I add a ~/.asoundrc, connect every thing , plug in the guitar and go.
He was surprised by the sound witch was now possible, and also surprised by the DAW's, Synths and Virtual Keybords,. . . .
All this need to be done fast, so "thanks for your ppa's" , this way it was just to easy to setup a Pro Audio Studio
