[LAU] outfitting a computer for songwriting in linux?

Hi All,
I've been a reader on the list for a while, not a poster until now.
I am preparing to outfit a computer for songwriting in Linux.
I will be using the command line notation options, of which there are
rather
a few from Lillypond to muscript.
I am hoping that how I picture this will match the creative reality smiles.
My first question is this.
some high end soundcards that are supported in Debian? I know its been
updated, but I intend using squeeze for a start. Getting the floor solid
before say adding updated furniture.
While I know that four duplex cards are common, I want the best quality I
can find for the work.
  say if you <hope this makes sense> wanted to connect a full sized piano
keyboard to the card?
Thanks in advance,
Karen
