I get this error when I try and install it:

$ sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.

At the top of this page - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/PackageList it says =OUTDATED=. I'm not sure if that's referring to the whole page (and why this install isn't working) or if it's just referring to the first thing on there (ubuntustudio-desktop).

Best way:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-security main universe" && sudo apt-get update

Then,

sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-audio

If the above doesn't work, other way is to download the packages manually and then install it from there. To do so:

mkdir ~/Downloads/ubuntustudio && cd ~/Downloads/ubuntustudio

Downloads the following packages manually (while still in the folder ~/Downloads/ubuntustudio):

security.ubuntu.com libavdevice-extra-53

wget -c http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/liba/libav/libavdevice-extra-53_9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_all.deb

security.ubuntu.com libavfilter-extra-3

wget -c http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/liba/libav/libavfilter-extra-3_9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_all.deb

security.ubuntu.com libavformat-extra-54

wget -c http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/liba/libav/libavformat-extra-54_9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_all.deb

security.ubuntu.com libavutil-extra-52

wget -c http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/liba/libav/libavutil-extra-52_9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_all.deb

security.ubuntu.com libswscale-extra-2

wget -c http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/liba/libav/libswscale-extra-2_9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1_all.deb

Then, to install it run:

sudo dpkg -i *.deb

And to satisfy any dependencies, do:

sudo apt-get -f install
