Welcome to Ubuntu Studio
Ubuntu Studio is a free and open operating system for creative people.
We provide the full range of multimedia content creation applications for each of our workflows: audio, graphics, video, photography and publishing.
Audio
Whether your aim is recording, mixing, mastering, live processing, or even coding, there is a variety of tools for you.
With a full suite of audio applications Ubuntu Studio can support you with these tasks and many more.
Graphics
Graphic design and modeling applications such as GIMP, Inkscape and Blender are provided. Along with plugins like dcraw to help with RAW camera files and wacom-tools for people with Wacom drawing tablets.
Video
From home movies to full length HD films, Ubuntu Studio supports you all the way to final render for your video.
Ubuntu Studio also provides an application suite for 3D modeling, animation, and compositing.
Post production effects, like lens flares, color grading, and chroma key/alpha over, are available to support your creative vision.

Import pictures from your camera or other devices.
Edit, process and organize your photos with such applications as Openshot and Darktable, and publish them to social web sites.
