Installation without any problem under Fedora, Ubuntu Studio, KX studio, in short all the Linux I tried and sometimes adopted.
The general configuration is easy for anyone familiar with Jack on Linux: you need to connect instruments to real or virtual multitrack recorder, track by track, and monitor outputs to connect the sound system.
I have not even tried the manual.
I have not encountered any incompatibility, only a few virtual instrument software does not work on Linux, and VST. It has nothing to do with Qtractor.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Sony VAIO Notebook X64 dual processor with 4 GB of RAM, external hard drive for recording, soundcard Alesis Multimix 4 USB (miexur used as a sound card) or internal card.
Works flawless, subject to the configuration of Jack sometimes temperamental when changing materials.
Once launched, it is stable.
I have chosen for a feature I've found anywhere else: it can record at once the 32 tracks of instruments of Hydrogen, software, battery and restore individual files.
This allows me to use Reaper then, which unfortunately runs under Linux with the tracks of real instruments (and therefore only the number of the sound card) and not virtual, for the treatment of each instrument and recording the rest of song.
But I might as well use Qtractor for all ...
OVERALL OPINION
three to four months of use.
Started ultra-easy, it can directly configure Jack to enslave and transport, it seems very light in resources ... It is free and therefore free editable by a programmer who tackle it.
I wish he makes wave files directly, but hey, instead of 32 since exports wave Hydrogen, 1:30 with various crashes, now I need 20 minutes by counting the passage parRackarrack example).
Value for money: + + + + (since infinite free)
