Last question first - yes, 'normal' applications can be installed along-side. Ubuntu-Studio is, afterall, just an Ubuntu system with an alternative set of 'default' packages. Make sure the correct repositories are in use, apt-get update and install as required. Regarding the penultimate question... a friend of mine had to use Cubase for a single module on his computing degree at Bristol UWE. After much argument with the lecturer he was still forced to use Cubsase - his lecturer would not budge and refused to accept any file format other than Cubase as a valid submission of coursework.
