If you are really going to do recording, use ardour (http://www.ardour.org). I'm using it currently for all my recording (connected to an Alesis adat via an RME HDSP9652). Pretty amazing setup. Ardour uses all the same LADSPA plugins as audacity and other LADSPA apps. Plus JACK is awesome - it is how computer audio should be done. Now if only I had dual opterons, multiple GB of RAM, and dual displays...

Ardour interests me, but I wish the website was reachable (it hasn't been, at least to me, for a while).
Also, past attempts at installing were frustrating - no drop in packages (RPMs, whatever) available then. While I have no issues compiling a tarball or two, when it comes to applications like these I prefer spending my time working with the app rather than fighting dependencies and compilers!
Note - I compile my OpenOffice.org from ground up, so any comments about my being a weenie are out of place :)

Who needs those with a name like that. ;-)
I recently plunked down a ton of cash for recording equipment for a home studio. I made doubly sure that everything is supported under ALSA and stuff, so I am kind of raring to go on this project.Using a Linux-based home recording studio (NewsForge)

Also, pre-built packages are available now for Debian, and you can
get RPM's also ( Planet CCMRA, etc )
