Felipe,
For what it's worth, this is a highly informative and friendly list -
contrary to the first response you received.
While there's not currently a specific application designed to function
like Ableton Live, there are many rock solid Linux-based options worth
your consideration. For example, using an application like PD, it's
possible to design looping sample triggers with custom interfaces - and
it's quite easy to do. Have a look at http://linux-sound.org/ to get a
taste of the audio possibilities open to performance minded Linux users.
And for the record. I have been relying on Linux in professional (read:
this is how I make a living) live audio situations for several years.
Most of these situations involve clients running multi-million dollar
organizations. If Linux failed me under these circumstances, I wouldn't
be writing to you on this list...
