so the realtime recording capabilities could be amazing.
l0wt3ch how does one do such if one listen to local radio or TV and they play music and I want to record what the sound card put out?
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

I think you may have misunderstood. "Realtime" isn't for recording a stream, it's for studio-quality audio production work.

Ooops sorry, anyway cool that you and the others have this thread for those that get what it is.

I did dl the latest and will test if my Acer can stomach a whole music studio.

I have an Akai PTS something MIDI keyboard that need a prog to take midi in from USB and make sound out through the Soundboard.

so I am curious of this puppy would allow me to

Yep!!
The realtimeversion IS the way to go - I recomend that version, to everyone I know, for it's mere speed and good use of available "horsepower" - However I enjoy to have all the great music apps at my fingertips (for smaller projects and tasks) *AND* easy recognition of more hardware* with the standard core...
(*i.e. internal wifi-cards - I still haven't tested hardwarerecognition with my modest Maudio keyboard, and I don't use firewire audio cards privately - so I don't know anything about compability issues for that hardware - yet..)
Still, I have found a useful pcm-cia card, which I will use if & when I need the extra low latency.
Thank you very much for distributing a "standard-core" version of Puppy Studio as well!!
Puppy Studio, Browser Linux *AND* the newest Puppy ver. 5.1.1 (adding Ubuntu repositories) are the reasons why I use Puppy Linux today.
Thanks for making Puppy Linux capable of making music with some the greatest software available for Linux...
I'll give you at least ***** five stars!!! :D

@nooby - the realtime aspect refers to audio latency - for example, if you were to connect up your midi keyboard in order to play a software synth you would experience a slight delay between pressing a key and hearing a sound which would obviously be quite off putting when playing. ditto when recording audio if you were monitoring via software rather than a hardware mixer or soundcard. running in realtime will greatly reduce that delay to barely perceptible, if at all, thanks to l0wt3chs' hard work. as for recording live audio streams i'm pretty sure you could use jack to connect the system output into one of the included audio recorders.

Yep, you said it!

This is one area where Puppy Studio really shines.
