The main window displays a lot of information regarding the project, sound and audio driver in the upper part, and a track view showing 6 empty tracks in the main area. When you're done with this, the main window will appear. All projects created by Traverso will be saved in this directory and since editing audio files requires a lot of disk free space, make sure you choose a directory on a partition where you have a few free gigabytes of free space. The first time Travers starts, it will prompt you for a project directory. Running Traverso is as easy as opening a terminal or pressing Alt + F2 and typing traverso followed by an Enter. However, if you want to use jack, it's clear you know what you're doing and that you don't need anyone's assistance. You shouldn't run into any problems regarding the audio hardware device, especially if you're using Ubuntu, thanks to its excellent hardware detection system. Either way, you should deactivate other sound servers like aRts provided by KDE before starting this application. Traverso can use either ALSA to access your sound card, or it can act as a jack client.

If everything else fails, you can at any time download the precompiled binary and run it without installing anything else (except the required libraries, of course). Fortunately, all these steps are explained in detail on the application's home page so no worries. Your system will also have to meet some requirements in order to make a successful compilation. However, installing from sources isn't as easy and you will need to follow some extra steps if your system has both Qt3 and 4 installed. If you're not using any of these distributions, you have a second best option to compile the source package.

The most convenient way to install Traverso is to use the precompiled packages available for Ubuntu Dapper or the Gentoo ebuild. The authors have provided several ways to install this application just to make sure anyone, using any distribution, will be able to use it. It uses libsoundfile and libsamplerate libraries to read/write from/to audio files. Because it's using the Qt toolkit, Traverso is a lightweight and fast program which is also light on system resources. Traverso is a lightweight multitrack audio recording and editing tool, written in C++, using the new Qt 4.1 toolkit, which has to be installed on your system as well to have a successful compilation (using an older version of Qt will result in a failure). But last night, I found an application that seems to turn things around. I've found several such applications but one won't start, another doesn't come with any kind of documentation and I've kinda lost hope. For a long time, I was looking for an audio recording and editing tool for Linux that's easy to install and use. Until then, let's see what's new in the multimedia section. I'm not saying multimedia support in Linux is now complete and flawless but its development is going on the right track and I truly believe, someday, we will be able to watch movies, play games and listen to music just as easily as on a Windows machine. Nowadays, audio and video decoding has been fully implemented and using one of the many good audio and video players, you can play just about any media format available out there. For a long time, multimedia support in Linux was either totally missing or weakly implemented.
