Meta-Package List

- The main meta-packages will simply install Audio, Graphic or Video applications.
- The Audio meta-package is also split into plugin categories, for anyone that wants more plugins, but not actually more applications.
- It's not like your KXStudio system will get slower with a bit more applications though... -

Meta-Package Details

- Some notes:
- 'audio' recommends 'audio-plugins', and 'audio-plugins' depends on all it's sub-packages.
- With the exception of KXStudio 12.04, 'graphics' recommends 'ubuntustudio-font-meta', which will install a nice collection of fonts.
- On KXStudio 12.04, you have to install 'ubuntustudio-font-meta' manually if you want that font collection. + The main meta-packages are Audio, Audio-Plugins, Graphics and Video.
+ The Audio-Plugins meta-package is also split into plugin categories, for anyone that wants more plugins, but not actually more applications.
+

+

+ The 'meta-restricted-extras' is simply a combination of '[k|x]ubuntu-restricted-extras', plus alsa-firmware and linux-firmware-nonfree.
+ (In this case, "restricted" means that it can't be installed in Ubuntu by default, but you're safe to do it afterwards). +

+

+ The 'meta-wine' includes Wine audio stuff, useful to install if you want to use Windows plugins after installing the KXStudio ISO.
+ This includes carla's Windows bridges, dssi-vst, festige, LMMS VST support and WineASIO.

Extra Meta-Packages
+

Notes

- The extra meta-packages are: + The 'meta-all' package recommends 'meta-restricted-extras' and 'meta-audio' recommends 'meta-audio-plugins'.
+ Depending on your distro these might be treated as dependencies.

-

- The 'codecs' package is self-explanatory, it will install a collection of codecs for gstreamer, sox and xine.
+ Audio plugins packages that include several formats (like drumgizmo that includes LV2 and VST) or standalone applications (like calf-plugins) + are not part of the specific 'meta-audio-plugins-*' packages.
+ This is because installing those will install additional plugin formats and/or full applications.
+ To ensure, for example, that you get all possible LV2 plugins, install 'meta-audio-plugins' and 'meta-audio-plugins-lv2'.

- The 'restricted-extras' is simply a combination of '[k|x]ubuntu-restricted-extras', and some other minor "restricted" stuff.
- (In this case, "restricted" means that it can't be installed in Ubuntu by default, but you're safe to do it afterwards).
- This package recommends 'kxstudio-meta-codecs'. + The 'meta-audio-plugins-collection' package is an alternative to installing all plugins at once.
+ If you're the kind of person that only wants to install the best plugins, consider installing this package first before installing other audio meta-packages.
+ This way installing 'meta-audio' will not pull 'meta-audio-plugins-ladspa', 'meta-audio-plugins-dssi', etc.
