I am almost convinced that I want to go Linux audio in my studio. I

have a x64 3ghz dual core AMD based box that is my dedicated DAW. I am

now deciding which distro to use that will give me stable performance

with minimum effort.


64 Studio would seem like an obvious choice but because I would like

to have VST's available, I seem to recall that is a possible issue?


Beyond that, is there any other advantage(s) to using a x64 OS other

than RAM access beyond 4gb? Is there any 32 bit OS performance

degradation when installed on a x64 machine?


Thanks,

Russell
