Suggestion: Adding an "Install Low-Latency Audio packages"-script to CachyOS-hello

I’m of the impression that the best OS for music production at the moment, is without a doubt CachyOS :slight_smile: And I think even more people could get the benefit of moving their music production-workflow to a Linux system, if the effort of doing so was lower.

I have created a walk-through/guide showing how I do, and as far as I can see, a lot of the things you would normally do to setup a low latency system, could be done through a script, which could be easily installed through the CachyOS Hello app.

My walk-through/guide for reference

If this could be relevant to work with for the CachyOS team, it would of course be important to make sure the setup fits as many scenarios as possible, but I would advice not to go the Ubuntu Studio route, and make an over-filled install with apps you’ll never get to use. It should be the essentials for low latency audio, mainly focusing on making the optimal pipewire setup and preferably the settings advised in Millisecond.

Personally I would also prefer a setup which was running wine-cachyos over wine, and a preinstalled Yabridge from the latest build (not yet in main).

What do you think?
