Using Linux, an obsolete Mbox 1 and an underpowered 2008 laptop, I've set up my studio to record audio once again.
My USB microphone started chronically glitching and as a result I've had to delete all of the videos I've been working on for this channel. The audio was unusable.
Through the process of troubleshooting this major audio meltdown, I've discovered an unexpected solution - AntiX 21 is an amazing Linux distro that works amazingly as the base to run Ardour and many other Linux audio applications.
