Hi, I'd really like to try the new Ardour version because I worked with expensive stuff like adobe Audition in the past and I'd like to see if ardour is as good as audition or even better...

My problem, if I download the Adour 2.7 file I can't install it. my system configurations are: Ubuntu 8.04 (hardy) Kernel Linux 2.6.24-22-generic Processor: Intel Celeron M CPU 420 @ 1.60GHz Memory: 495 MB

Please help me

What do you mean by you can't install it? Are you installing a deb or from source? If you are trying to install from source what are the errors if any? Debs are easier to install so I would suggest downloading the deb package from [[COLOR=Blue]here[/COLOR]]("http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=3505") then double click on it to start installing. You may need to install a few dependencies to get the deb package installed. :)

Okay... if I do it like that it says: Error: Dependency is not satisfiable:libasound2

thanks for the help so far...would be great if you can tell me how to get it right

Means you need to install the libasound2 package. You can search through Synaptic (System>Admin>Synaptic Package Manager) for libasound2 or open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and type

sudo apt-get install libasound2
