At this point, I have already commented on several of the Latest distros for multimedia creation and how to configure the base of a newly installed Ubuntu for this same purpose.
When I mentioned Dream studio (now "Dream Studio Unity") I missed mentioning that the distro offers support and, aside, Dick MacInnis is preparing a series of video tutorials to work with it. Just as we can download and install the iso, on the web they provide us with an executable to configure a standard Ubuntu installation and install at our choice the different groups of software included in DreamStudio. |
The first thing to do is to check that the system is up to date in 'Settings> Software Update'.
Once updated, we download and unzip the installation folder, which contains a README with the instructions and an installer script. By double clicking on the installer and selecting 'run', it will proceed to download all the necessary resources. The first thing the installer will do is update the repositories, adding those from the Dream Studio distro. Once this is done, it will show us a list where to select the desired software categories. These are:
- Design 3D
- Audio Effects
- Audio recording
- Audio Utilities
- Interface Tools
- Graphic design
- Instrument Software
- Photography
- Musical notation
- Video edition
Note that this includes a large amount of software, so it can take a long time to download and install all categories. After the software installation, a new menu will give us the option to add the light environments LXDE (AvLinux, Lubuntu) or XFCE (Ubuntu Studio, Xubuntu). Finally, a window will ask us if we want the default user configuration of Dream Studio. You can say no, but in multimedia production there are a couple of parameters (explained here) that we will save with this step.
As you can see, mutating an Ubuntu installation to a system full of multimedia creation programs has been very easy. There is no loss in a comment where a user says that this is the reason why Linux does not grow 4%: you have to download a file, unzip it… Dick MacInnis's answer is exquisite.
U_U didn't work And I really don't like the appearance and with that unity is not so modifiable
I don't know if this link will help you. If it does not solve it for you, it is seen that Dick responds usually, so do not hesitate to ask him 😉

I have a question ... How do I remove it?
I have it installed and I don't like what it did to the Unity interface (sometimes it looks like win7)
Excellent explanation.

THX! If you find a related video on which an explanation in less or more detail would be useful, do not hesitate to notify us! 😉
Do you know if it has a low latency kernel like Ubuntu Studio?
All the multimedia distros that I have tried to date have the low latency kernel, although since version 3.2 it is not usually very necessary. Likewise, you can install it from repositories on a standard Linux system, it is not a major inconvenience.
Ubuntu-based distros usually don't have a problem with any language.
Regarding the VSTs. I have not played much with them but perhaps the distro that best implements them is AvLinux (based on Debian). Currently Ardor itself does not support VSTs, it does so through a project called Ardor-VST (also included in AvLinux) and from which they separated a few years ago. It can be used, and Glen from AvLinux has also released an Ardor3-VST package. If you want to use VSTs, I would recommend AvLinux: although I liked DreamStudio a lot, I consider it a little more unstable than AVLinux, and if you want to use VSTs you will need the most robust system you can find, to save yourself problems 😉
Is the distro in Spanish?
Interesting. I saw that the included Arodur has vst support. On the other hand I was looking for it on the internet but I did not find anything about it: do you know if it has a low latency kernel like Ubuntu Studio?
Useful.

Again I must emphasize that the article has been very useful to me.
