Linux and Audio

**Disclaimer** - Um, this is kind of out of date, but most of it is still valid! Check the Planet CCRMA website for up to date URLS.

There are loads of very high quality open source applications available for the linux platform. If, like me, you are a bit of a cheapskate, then it is definitely worth a look. You don't even need to know how to compile applications yourself - with Fedora Core and the Planet CCRMA @ Home package you can easily install most of the currently available applications. Below you will find some notes from a workshop I gave on installing Linux, the Planet CCRMA software, and optimizing your system for audio work.
