Since you are familiar with Ubuntu, have you tried Ubuntu Studio? Lots of A/V 
software for creators there, including virtual multi-track mixing boards 
(specific name escapes me), Audacity (for multi-track audio), OpenShot (for 
multi-track A/V). I use Ubuntu Studio for creating my YouTube videos. Compared 
to Adobe Premiere Elements (Windows), I prefer OpenShot. 

None of the software I mentioned is console-based, but you can remotely SSH 
from Windows through a xterm client in Cygwin/X (ssh -Y <user@host>), and the 
X-windows programs should be useable in all their GUI-based glory. You need to 
install Cygwin/X on Windows, first.

Dyne:Bolic linux also deals with A/V for creators, and is more committed to the 
Open Source philosophy (but has less to offer).

Command line tools? Not sure if any fit the bill, but I never looked.
