Does anyone have experience with music producing on Ubuntu? What software can I use and where would I find the plugins?

Thanks.

Yeah I do it steady... you want Renoise, you want FLStudio in winde and you want JACK audio interface.

Thats pretty vague, if you elaborate Ill help, cant do much there aside from tell you to try again, and use synaptic...

all depends on what criteria you're going to measure it on. personally i like ubuntu, i think it's a good all-round distro but if you're a gentoo fan who loves how that distro works for you then using ubuntu might cause you to eat your own face.

heh my only qualms with ubuntu are old arguements with a socialist rapist troll from doa days who spouted on about it for shit that never was related
personally i love slackware, debian, and free bsd
tested out a few other distros that were lite on old machines that i've since tossed to the trash
last i knew ubuntu was heavily based off debian code
