Thanks everyone - some really helpful comments and advice. Ardour is more basic and also a good option if you are just recording. I would not recommend Audacity. Lillith - can I just ask what you mean by just recording? What sort of things, beyond this, might be a problem for Ardour? Based upon my i...

Hello there. I am tempted to have a go at a bit of recording, but am a total novice to it. I know it is a very subjective question but which DAW should I use? I wanted (if possible) to avoid just installing and trying both, as it might end up confusing me. Is there any sort of consensus as to which ...

Managed to get it back now, thanks - somehow, my moggie managed to mute pulse audio.

Switched it back on, again, and all fine.

Perhaps my cat wants me to go back to Windows!

Hi there. I have a really strange issue. .I am pretty new to Linux, generally, but managed to get Ardour and Guitarix running on Ubuntu Studio. I followed some instructions only, to install Cadence, so that I could turn on Pluseaudio to Jack bridging. I use this so I can play guitar to Youtube. Ever...

Thanks for your replies. At the moment, I have gain at at 50% on the interface. I tried the preset on Guitarix called Sonnie_Tele / clean_clean and it just sounded like a semi-rock track. I checked on youtube and someone else, using the same preset, got a perfectly clear and bright sound. I tried tu...

Hi there. I would be really grateful for some advice. I have just installed Ubuntu Studio and have connected my guitar (Ibanez RG505) to it via a Steinberg UR22 MKII. I have been messing around with Rakarrack and Guitarix and am finding that even though I can hear the change in sound, everything see...

Hi there. I would be really grateful for some initial advice. I have a couple of guitars, a midi keyboard and a Steinberg ur22 mkii interface. I would love to try recording some stuff and would be grateful for some initial advice on where to start. Whilst I am forced to use Windows, for working from...

Thanks guys - really appreciate that. Usually, when there are lots of alternatives, I give them all a go. However, with something as complicated as DAWs, I cannot really take the time to learn how all of them work, in order to give them a good test run. I think I am going to give Ardour a go and see...

Hello. I have bought myself a Steinberg MKII UR22 audio interface and am looking to have a go at recording some guitar-based music. I currently run the latest version of Mint on my desktop and would be grateful for some advice as to which piece of software to use. Any pointers/advice would be much a...
