Judgement Day: Studio Dave Tests Ubuntu Studio 9.04 (Linux Journal)
[Posted June 5, 2009 by ris]
Dave Phillips tests
the latest version of Ubuntu Studio. "Performance-wise this
system is now a beauty. Alas, the hoops I jumped through to get it into
this condition were many and formidable. The solutions to my problems were
not too difficult to find or implement, but they would be extremely
challenging for users unfamiliar with the inner workings of Linux. In my
opinion the Ubuntu Studio installer needs to go further in its preparation
of the system for pro-audio needs, perhaps offering the user a choice
between a high-performance desktop media playback system, a low-latency
pro-audio production environment, or some stable mixture of both. The
Pulseaudio problem ought to be easily resolvable by the user, and more
system probing might be able to spot and resolve problems such as needless
HAL polling."
