I don't think so. I use Ensoniq's Paris system myself, but I hang out
online with a bunch of guys who use a variety of apps. Several of them
use Cubase.
Based on what I know about Ardour, it's come a long way in recent years,
but it's still not quite up to apps like Logic or Cubase or Nuendo.
It's interesting to watch the development of Ardour, but I don't believe
it's quite ready to go head-to-head yet. I could be wrong, though.
