    JACK should be automatically installed with Ubuntu Studio, if you go that route.

    Wow...

    Well, first off...thanks to everyone for your responses...

    I'm a little confused, but I'm starting to make sense of it all.

    I'll do the hardware.txt thing tonight or tomorrow, and I'll post that up so you can better advise me, and, yes, my current soundcard makes all kinds of annoying beeps, so it will probably be ok.

    I think, at this rate, I'm just going to dump everything and put on studio (I haven't really even saved a document on the computer, so I don't really care about wiping it clean again).

    Thanks again guys!

    I really appreciate all your help (and I can't flippin' wait until I can start recording!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

    GOOD NEWS!!!

    I was explaining to a friend that I was trying to set up a recording studio, and he wanted me to record his band when I get it set up...so to help he's giving me a Dell 490 precision workstation (way better than the dimension that I've been screwing around with)!!!

    UBER SCORE!

    Anyhow, I'll have to wait until I get that to get the hardware.txt, but, rest assured, I should have it done soon!!!

    Thanks for your patience!

    -Jim

    Ok, not as good of news...the guy said "450" not "490", but it's still an upgrade.

    Anyway, here's the hardware list (Please don't laugh too hard). If anyone could recommend a good linux-compatable instrument/computer interface, it would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

    THANKS!!!

    I'm thinking of using this:

    http://www.guitarcenter.com/M-Audio-...04-i1154072.gc

    It says it's compatable...opinions?

    I have been using the M-Audio Audiophile 2496 for years in Linux (Fedora, Ubuntu, Studio64) and could not be happier. This card has 2 RCA inputs (L, R), 2 RCA outputs (L,R) and MIDI capability. Once you install the ubuntustudio packages, you will have a comprehensive software selection covering editing tools, production, software synths, etc. Become familiar with Ardour 2 as this will most likely be your primary multitrack solution. This tutorial is also pretty helpful: www.out-of-order.ca/tutorials/ardour/

    RME Support Linux in almost all their PCI and Cardbus products.
    http://www.rme-audio.de/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=15085

    As for me, my SoundCard is an RME HDSP 9632
    As seen here.

    Although, my personal preferences actually deny UbuntuStudio. It is far too heavy and bloated for me.
    Have a look at 64Studio, their kernel patches feels far better tuned for realtime/low latency than any others I've used. (At least, on my low budget M/B|CPU hardware)

    Wow...

    That one even says that it is not linux compatable...

    I kind of like the pricer one, even for just the fact that it has a breakout box (more accessable...).

    I'll keep looking though!

    i also have an Audiophile 2496 but have as yet been unable to get it to function in Hardy. The alsa mixer diplays a sound output but i get zero sound out of the outputs.

    I went back to 7.10 where it worked straight away.

    It is however a fantastic card for the money and provides lots of connectivity for recording.
