Indamixx sound box plays on Linux base
,----[ Quote ]
| Hip hop artists might not be the most obvious target for Linux evangelists,
| but a little-known distribution called Transmission is making waves. It's
| what powers Indamixx, a pro audio production system that runs on a customised
| Samsung handheld computer created by Trinity Audio Group. Developed by 64
| Studio Ltd. on a mixed Debian/Ubuntu base, Transmission and its bundled
| applications are a quintessential open source story.
|
| [...]
|
| The lesson for open source developers is straightforward: simple application
| interfaces with fewer bells and knobs are easier to adapt. The open source
| nature of this software makes 64 Studio's work possible, opening up pro audio
| tools to platforms and audiences that would normally go straight for
| proprietary offerings on chunkier laptops. The development process of
| Transmission and the Indamixx -- taking in several different companies and a
| large community of developers and musicians -- demonstrates the power of this
| open, participatory approach. The proof may be in the Indamixx device in the
| DJ's booth at your local club Saturday night.

64 Studio Review
,----[ Quote ]
| So, what do I think of 64 Studio? On the one hand, there doesn’t seem to be
| much of a difference on the surface between 64 Studio and just taking a
| vanilla Debian install and installing the same packages as 64 Studio. On the
| other hand, there’s something to be said about a distro that already has all
| the packages installed and that you can just hand to a technologically-minded
| creative person and they can install it and start getting creative with free
| software. Minus points for not having a graphical installer and minus points
| for having the menu bar at the bottom.
