Audio production and composing

[Sean Edwards]

Take a look at vkeybd (Virtual Keyboard).  It allows you to map your PC keyboard to notes in synths, sequencers, and MIDI connections.

It takes some getting used to, but it is better than step sequencing with a mouse!

One way to work fast without a keyboard is to use a keyboard ;)
The pc-keyboard and a tracker.
It's mostly used for electronic music but it may be possible to do
other music as well. Trackers usually work with synths and samples.
I think ubuntu studio doesn't include a tracker by default and I don't
really know which ones are good, but I would try soundtracker and
aldrin.
