Suggested Software:

Possible Issues

• There is limited support for planet ccrma packages for fc6. We were in a similar situation last year, but it seems a little worse this year. Especially with fc7 around the corner.
• audacity and jack still don't get along that well
• But these can be resolved with a distribution like Starcom's MM edition for example.

Some sample projects

• podcasts
  • simple interview
  • incorporation of openly license music and original words

• music
  • a simple song made from hydrogen drum patterns
  • a mashup of CC sound clips from ccmixter
  • original lyrics to CC beats
