:* Followed '''instructions to make my Tascam US122 device work''' with my netbook: [ [https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TASCAM_US-122 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TASCAM_US-122] ]<br /><br />
* "Tweaked" the appearance of my Gnome Desktop like running the '''Avant Window Navigator (docking panel appearance like Mac OSX)''', and '''removed the "old-style" gnome-panels'''. Here is a resource that I created to help: [ [[Replacing Panels with Docking Station (awn)]] ]<br /><br />
* Now you have Ubuntu Studio on your machine.<br /><br /> Here are some guides that I have written to help you get started<br /> (even provides some basic recording sessions information):
:* [ [[Quick & Simple - Setting up Jack Server and Q-synth]] ]
:* [ [[Quick & Simple - Recording With Audacity]] ]
:* [ [[Quick & Simple - Recording With Ardour]] ]<br /><br />[[Image:netbook2.png||right|400px]]:* The organ emulator called '''Bristol Organ''' can simply be run via the '''startBristol''' command ''(after the Jack audio server has been started)''. To simplify the process of starting jack audio server, launching and making input/output connections for both '''Qsynth ''' and several '''Bristol Organ ''' emulations, it is easier to place commands into a '''Bash shell script''' and run shell script as a program! ''Please see next section for an example of how I did this...''
FYI, the '''Maudio Fasttrack Pro''' is a good usb interface and "works out of the box" (after a couple of Jack server settings)... There is also a cheaper version for approx $87 CDN, but lacks MIDI connection (which may not be a problem since newer MIDI musical keyboards are USB anyways...)
