Open Source audio editing projects

As I said to Jono over christmas, I was thinking of recording a small jingle for the show (may never happen etc...). I'd like to do this with Linux as an experiment.

I think most people looking into this know about:

http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/
http://ardour.org/
http://www.dynebolic.org/

What was the one mentioned in S2E8? The Wire Project? Care to offer a link? (Google isn't helping).

Anyone here with practical experience of any of the above? Recommendations, do's and don'ts requested.

Thanks,

Ad

For the record, I haven't tried Wired, or any other audio manipulation software, under Linux. Wired got a mention in LXF, and looked pretty impressive, so I mentioned it on the forum when someone asked about LUGRadio's recording software details.

I have played a bit with Hydrogen which is a cool drum machine for Linux......

I've used ardour a few times just to play about (recorded myself drumming a djembe then added some effects). It looks really good, and is being worked on again I think which is even better. I'd say it's getting to be a serious contender in terms of top end multitrack recording /mixing, but isn't the easiest program to learn if you just want to do something simple. Probably worth learning though if you're planning on doing more complex projects later.
