Introduction to the JackLab user community – purpose of the project , kernel and software.
openSUSE JAD – how does it work? A user friendly installation with YaST. (Live installation)
In parallel with the installation we will do a little introduction to music production on a second machine – we will show what is already possible and also things that are still problematic, for example the limited ability to use VST plug-ins and the intricacy of maintaining a music production environment.
We will implement a virtual music production with real instruments, realtime effects and tone generators.
The software used will be MusE, Ardour, FST, Qsampler and Hydrogen along with a couple of LADSPA plug-ins. Contingently we will also present the new commercial EnergyXT sequencing software for Linux.
