Hello everyone, I am currently mainly using Ubuntu Studio for artistic creation (sometimes I also use Windows 11, but I mainly use Ubuntu Studio), and I am a loyal fan of Ubuntu Studio. I’m sorry that I don’t have enough funds to support Ubuntu Studio, but I still want to do whatever I can for Ubuntu Studio.
I found that in this world (especially in mainland China), there are almost no tutorials for creating art using Ubuntu Studio, so I came up with this idea: to write a comprehensive tutorial for creating artworks using Ubuntu Studio, including painting, image design, layout, music production, and 3D creation, among others. I am now very familiar with all of these and can be considered skilled in them.
(Regarding Ubuntu Studio, although I have used it for many years, I do not yet fully understand it completely, but I can continue to learn everything about Ubuntu Studio. I believe that creating this tutorial is also an excellent opportunity for me to further understand Ubuntu Studio…)
I plan to make two versions of this tutorial: an e-book format and an HTML5 website format. It is expected to take several months (around two to three months) to complete, and I am using the Ubuntu Studio version 26.04 LTS.
…In short, that’s it. If you have any suggestions, please bring them up. Thank you very much.
(My native language is Simplified Chinese, and I am not very familiar with English, so for the time being I can only release a Simplified Chinese version. Please forgive me…)
Supplement: This character will become the cover character of this tutorial,If everyone allows it.
I just want to contribute to Ubuntu Studio…（我只想向Ubuntu Studio投稿…） - Introductions - Ubuntu Community Hub
I wrote the first article of the tutorial I intended to write today: Installing Ubuntu Studio 26.04, here is the link:

I will continue writing until the day it is completely finished.
I have compiled a list of pre-installed sound sources after installing Ubuntu Studio.

Also, I recommend Decent Sampler, which can run normally on Ubuntu Studio. It is a sampler similar to Kontakt, and there are already quite a few free sounds created for this sampler.
These are the compiled list of free sounds for Decent Sampler.

I have downloaded almost all the free sound sources listed on the ‘Linux DAW’ website and installed them on my Ubuntu Studio. In the past couple of days, I have tried to publish the compiled sound source list as a reference for everyone when choosing sound sources.
If you want some already published material as reference, you should probably visit “Full Circle Magazine”, which is primarily Ubuntu-oriented, but periodically does comparisons to other Distros or Desktops.
What is most relevant to your current initiative is that the Magazine has articles, almost every month, which cover different aspects of some key graphical tools:
- Inkscape (part 168 of ongoing series)
- Latex ( one of many, issue # 207)
- Blender ( Pt. 9 in issue # 186)
- Krita (Pt. 12 in issue # 162)
- Rawtherapee (Pt. 7 in issue #161)
- Darktable (Pt. 10 in issue # 152)
- LibreOffice Draw (Pt. 30 in issue # 77)
- FreeCAD (Pt. 5 in issue # 193)
- Fritzing (issue # 167)
Published freely online (PDF or ePUB), the latest issue is available here:
For an index of all the articles published since inception, you can visit here:
Thank you for the reminder, I will go take a look.
I have collected almost all the free sound sources suitable for Linux under the ‘Linux DAW’ website that can run normally on Ubuntu Studio, and organized them into a list. Please see here:

If you also use Ubuntu Studio to make music, I hope this list will be helpful to you.
