Hello,
still searching but didn't find very precise answers yet, is there a computer-aided musical creation -oriented flavor of CentOS (like the Ubuntu Studio)? Or would it be about gathering stuff from different repos and setting up everything by hand?
A repository that would provide low-latency kernel (realtime one?): I've found the CentOS-RT from the CERN + (1)). Specific tools (from Jack/qjackctl, carla, audacity .. to the DAW), I've found stuff on different repositories.
On a CentOS7 box I could setup jackd, audacity/lmms (from the sources) and reaper (ardour from nux depo is way to old), I know what to use at end-user software but would like to find a CentOS variant/repo where software is recent (sometimes critical for audio devices).
Any advice?

Hi,
I followed more or less what you described here some time ago so I built some pkgs in a personal copr for this (probably not up2date anymore, but what I have there still works for my needs) See this blog post (as an example, also with links to copr repo etc) : https://arrfab.net/posts/2017/Jan/05/music-recording-on-centos-7-daw/
I'll keep that machine running CentOS 7 and I'll (slowly, time permitting) consider doing the same kind of copr repo for CentOS 8 , hopefully one day
