[Lancaster] distro for audio / music stuff

[andy baxter]

Can anyone recommend a good distro for doing simple music recording / 
editing / etc? I use ubuntu for everything else, but I've just spent a 
fair bit of money on a new external firewire sound card with 2 inputs 
and outputs, and then found various annoying bugs in the programs I'm 
using (jackd, ardour, and zynaddsubfx so far), which is making me think 
that the ubuntu people don't really have audio work as their main 
priority when keeping packages up to date. I could use 'planet CCRMA' 
(http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/), but this is fedora 
based I would rather use something debian based.
