Audio editing with ARM cpu

Note: This was originally posted on 10th April 2011 at http://forums.arm.com

Hello! I'm not a ARM expert but I'm really into ARM devices. Nowdays I mainly make music on my computer and I have to move around with my equipment to record stuff (singing, instruments, atmospheric etc..) and at-place-composing, making beats. I totally need a laptop for it. I'm already familiar with linux audio editing software, thanks to ubuntu-studio. Since Ubuntu/Debian is working so well on ARM I've been planning to buy the Nufront Newton laptop, with 2,0 GHz dual-core cpu. I know that some things are faster with ARM than x86, but does anyone know how well ARM manages with audio editing?

    Hi Tuo,

    To be frank, I think the Toshiba AC100 is quite a cool device... I know I'm supposed to say that ;)  but I'm actually thinking it too!
    Tegra 250 does not feature NEON because nVidia have their own expertise in multimedia so it's not a show stopper.
    Still, as I'm personally not fan of Android on it, you can easily find online resources to get Ubuntu on it, and then it's open road for you to have fun!

    Cheers,
    Alban
