Generic Hello

Post by dArAzAc »

Hey everyone!
I finally made the switch to Linux after making audio on Windows for several years, I had many reasons to switch and was ultimately enticed by the community. I thought that I would try Arch because I really enjoy the minimalism and customizability that they offer (and require), but after attempting to install it twice (while following the beginner's guide to the teeth) I kept getting inexplicable errors. Oh well, so I'm on (you guessed it!) Ubuntu.

I'm excited for qtractor, but right now I'm still trying to get my system kinks worked out.

I 've been playing guitar since I was 11 and have picked up drums, bass, keys, harmonica, and some singing along the way. Aside from music I'm a writer and a starving college English Major, I'm also living in Atlanta.

I think that covers it. :)

Current Rig: Dell Vostro 1520, Arch Linux, Novation Remote25SL, and my trusty guitar.

Welcome!

if you like customizability you could also tune a plain debian for realtime audio performance. There is a lot of valuable information on how to do that in the system tunning and configuration section of the LM wiki).

Cheers,

Gerard.

Hello and welcome to one of the friendliest online communities! These guys will really help you. Don't be scared of using Ubuntu - I do and I have no problems, even without a RealTime kernel (if you know what that is) ... feel free to ask me any questions, as I'm a pro in helping people who used to use Windows...
