Ubuntu Studio with Xfce or Lxde

[Tommy yeah]

Something I tried with a slower machine to use all of the plugins that I
wanted was to mix down one effect at a time, so if i wanted a reverb on my
drum tracks and eq's on all the rest of my tracks but couldn't run the
session with that many effects I would solo my drums tracks with the reverb,
mix those down to a single wet track and load the mixdown track back into my
session so I no longer had to run the effect realtime.
