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

<p> <p>
Some notes:<br/>
'audio' recommends 'audio-plugins', and 'audio-plugins' depends on all it's sub-packages.<br />
With the exception of KXStudio 12.04, 'graphics' recommends 'ubuntustudio-font-meta', which will install a nice collection of fonts.<br />
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.<br/>
The Audio-Plugins meta-package is also split into plugin categories, for anyone that wants more plugins, but not actually more applications.<br/>
</p>
<p>
The 'meta-restricted-extras' is simply a combination of '[k|x]ubuntu-restricted-extras', plus alsa-firmware and linux-firmware-nonfree.<br/>
(In this case, "restricted" means that it can't be installed in Ubuntu by default, but you're safe to do it afterwards).
</p>
<p>
The 'meta-wine' includes Wine audio stuff, useful to install if you want to use Windows plugins after installing the KXStudio ISO.<br/>
This includes carla's Windows bridges, dssi-vst, festige, LMMS VST support and WineASIO.
</p> </p>

<h5><span class="mw-headline" id="ExtraMetaPackages">Extra Meta-Packages</span></h5>
<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Notes">Notes</span></h3>
<p> <p>
The extra meta-packages are:
The 'meta-all' package recommends 'meta-restricted-extras' and 'meta-audio' recommends 'meta-audio-plugins'.<br/>
Depending on your distro these might be treated as dependencies.
</p> </p>
<ul>
<li>kxstudio-meta-codecs <i>(12.04 only)</i></li>
<li>kxstudio-meta-restricted-extras</li>
</ul>
<p> <p>
The 'codecs' package is self-explanatory, it will install a collection of codecs for gstreamer, sox and xine.<br />
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.<br/>
This is because installing those will install additional plugin formats and/or full applications.<br/>
To ensure, for example, that you get all possible LV2 plugins, install 'meta-audio-plugins' and 'meta-audio-plugins-lv2'.
</p> </p>
<p> <p>
The 'restricted-extras' is simply a combination of '[k|x]ubuntu-restricted-extras', and some other minor "restricted" stuff.<br />
(In this case, "restricted" means that it can't be installed in Ubuntu by default, but you're safe to do it afterwards).<br />
This package recommends 'kxstudio-meta-codecs'.
The 'meta-audio-plugins-collection' package is an alternative to installing all plugins at once.<br/>
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.<br/>
This way installing 'meta-audio' will not pull 'meta-audio-plugins-ladspa', 'meta-audio-plugins-dssi', etc.
