Hello Folks;
I am a linux enthusiast, and software engineer who would like to start using my Linux laptop as a live performance tool.
I am a bassist, and want to be able to process, sample and loop my instrument through my laptop in a live situation.
I am just beginning my research into the available software and hardware, and would greatly appreciate any information. Especially on hardware - what would be the best usb/ firewire interface for live performance?
Following is my setup:
Alienware m-51 laptop w/ 1 gig ram, 40gig hd, 3.24 mhz intel processor
7-string MTD custom fretless, strung B-E-A-D-G-C-F
Some stomp boxes: MXR Stereo chorus, Boss RC-20 loop station, Old Roland Phaser
At this point, my idea is to string it up like this:
Bass -> Stomp Boxes -> usb/firewire interface -> Laptop -> Amplifier / PA
Thanks for your time folks - I look forward to your reply!
