[arch-general] Unofficial User Repositories

Hi :)

I've got some newbie questions regarding to the Unofficial User
Repositories.
Until now I only used some AUR packages and /etc/pacman.conf was set up
like [1].
Now I'll uncomment multilib and add
- archaudio-production
- archstudio
- kxstudio-free
- kxstudio-non-free
- arch-fonts
- mate
- archaudio-preview
- archaudio-nightly
- archaudio-experimental

Is it recommended not to use some of those repositories to avoid a
broken system? Is this order ok, or is another order more safe? Any
recommendations when pro-audio is most important, followed by painting
and graphic design and less important video production?

Regards,

Ralf
