 * The Ubuntu Studio Team have continued to work on Ubuntu Studio Controls for the Cosmic Release. It is possible to set the CPU governor to performance mode, which is important for recording. BIOS settings may need to be changed for this setting to take effect. It is also possible to start and stop Jack, and to change audio settings on the fly. Sensible settings for audio work are also set when the application is first run. Ubuntu Studio Controls can be used as an alternative to QJackctl for most routine audio recording work.  * Ubuntu Studio Controls has been upgraded to Version 1.6. Many changes have been made for the Cosmic Release, and the following is a summary of some of those changes:
  * Many bug fixes
  * General graphical interface improvements
  * Code refactoring (new autojack module).
  * Detects plugin of USB devices
  * The status of Jack (started or stopped) is carried through a reboot.
  * For more information about Ubuntu Studio Controls, see:
   * The README
   * The manpages for ubuntustudio-controls, autojack and ubuntustudio-system

Ubuntu Studio uses the same XFCE desktop environment as the official Xubuntu release, and thus, may be affected by some of the same issues. This is also true of the core packages of the mainline Ubuntu release. You can see their release notes here (Xubuntu) and here (Ubuntu)


Support

Ubuntu Studio Bionic Beaver (18.10) will be supported for 9 months until August 2019. If you need Long Term Support, it is recommended you use Ubuntu Studio Xenial 16.04 LTS instead.
