UbuntuStudio has major issues with its kernel-rt package. As of now I
would not recommend it to anyone who likes to set up his/her distro by
simply installing the right kernel package.
Hope, this will improve over time, until then:

Open Suse allows to install a very very powerfull rt-kernel made by Jan
Engelhardt (suser jengelh). I am quiete happy with that one.
Only Pure:Dyne delivers even better performanceon my box but is not the
same as easy to install/use as a general-purpose-distro.
