Be welcome. The recommended route to keep up with qtractor development is having no trouble in building it from source and ultimately from the CVS repository, for the latest and greatest ;) However, you need to have installed all of mandatory requirements listed. Using your favorite package manager, and assuming you're still with some Debian/xUbuntu flavour, make sure you install all of these and their respective dependencies:

and, optionally, any or all of the following:

(*) librubberband may not be found on regular debian/ubuntu repositories still, so you can grab the deb's from here (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS 32bit only):

Have a go, (re)try and tell.

Re. sites with qtractor made songs: well, qtractor is not a finished product, yet (will it ever be?:) although it is already fully functional and reportedly stable enough to start doing some kicks. That is to say that I'm eager to ear your productions as well.

Ah, one thing you should have in mind is that qtractor is designed to be a part of a Linux audio/sound ecosystem; that is, it doesn't live on its own as a stand-alone sound and music production application; for instance, you'll need synths, and samplers (soft or outboard) to render MIDI stuff; it is not like the all-in-one-monolithic-wonder applications that you usually find in Windows (eg. FLStudio). So you can hardly tell in all truth your finished job will be made in qtractor per se. Most of all, it is made by YOU :)
