Apart from myself, who else is using antiX or MX for making music?

Eino used our full blown build-iso tool to make their music production respin. It is easier to use our live-remaster and snapshot tools in simple circumstances. I say this in case you are interested in making your own music production respin.

Whilst I'm an AntiX fan myself, maybe take a look at this distro for ideas.

@OP: I am! __{{emoticon}}__

After a bit of frustration with the recent Ubuntu Studio 16.04 regarding some performance issues, I came to a simple conclusion:
as a synth user who wants hardware-like performance,"less is better." A distro that fits on a CD is better than 2-4GB distros, at least as far as where performance is concerned.
Speed and no-interruptions are crucial. So I installed AntiX 16 (full, but base would have been fine too, I think), 32-bit. It works wonderfully.

I added the KXStudio repositories, since they are available for Debian-based distros, not just Ubuntu.
