Not an easy task really: Suites like Brahms for KDE, and GLAME for Gnome are a good start, but I've yet to find a program - or a series of programs - that even approach something as comprehensive as Cubase or Cakewalk on those other platforms. Anyway, here's something that might just prove to be a good start. The European Commission is sponsoring a distribution called AGNULA (A GNU/Linux Audio distribution). The distribution will come in two flavours: Debian-based, and RedHat-based. You can read about the project and it's goals at http://www.agnula.org." The Debian side of this project is called DeMuDi, and it's been mentioned here before.

AC3 Support? by CmdrTaco+(editor) · 2002-05-28 18:27 · Score: 0, Troll

One thing noticeably missing from the Debian package listing is AC3 support. If Linux wants to intrude on market share from the Mac/Windows community, more effort needs to be made to attract audio professionals.
