If you are going to only have one application running why are you going to throw a complete operating system between it and the hardware?
All peripherals will need to be added at some point. It will be running a digital audio workstation (DAW) that will eventually require USB, cd drive, other device support. I cant have all the system updates and bullsh that goes on in todays large scale operating systems, that is the plague when recording audio.
It will most definitely be a complete OS, but made to do only one thing: Run a DAW flawlessly.

mb-applet-launcher(1) General Commands Manual mb-applet-launcher(1)
NAME
mb-applet-launcher - an application launcher panel applet
SYNOPSIS
mb-applet-launcher [options] [action] image_file application
DESCRIPTION
mb-applet-launcher is a panel applet which can be used to start a given application. The applet displays the PNG or XPM file given on the
command line as an icon, and when the user clicks on the icon the application is started.
Matchbox is a base environment for the X Window System running on non-desktop embedded platforms such as handhelds, set-top boxes, kiosks
and anything else for which screen space, input mechanisms or system resources are limited.
OPTIONS
-display display
X display to connect to
--title title
--no-animation
Disable any animations
--start, -s
Start application immediately
The default action is to iconize/uniconize the selected application. Other actions can be specified as command-line options:
--kill, -k
Destroy the application
--respawn, -l
Respawn multiple instances of the application
--message, -m
Display output from the application as a message from the panel
Alternatively, a valid .desktop file can be given:
--desktop .desktop_file
Any actions given with this option will have no effect. Similar behaviour can be achieved by including a `SingleInstance=True' key
pair in the .desktop file.
