Unfortunately, there's still no good linux DAW.

Part of the problem is that there are so many audio systems, that supporting all of them and all the possible configurations they could have is probably not worth it.

Note that OpenBSD does not have this problem: it has a perfectly good, low-latency STANDARD audio system (see sndio). Linducks take note.

JACK is the standard for audio work on GNU.

As for the work environment, Csound is the most versatile

another FLfag here.

I had so much great fun with it for now coming closer and closer to 2 fucking decades, it just feels like a good friend now.

tried so many other DAWs but in the end I always returned to FL.
others might be better in a lot of cases but that shit just went into my blood and I can't get it out of my head ever again.

but since I'm still having a great time with it, I guess that is all what counts.

>>57793143

Whats wrong with it?

>>57793162

puredata is best paired with a daw.

>>57793233

not really, you have pulse and jack which both use alsa and can be configured to work together..

>>57793274
>JACK
It's probably a lot better now, but last I checked, installing jack was a huge pain on debian.

What does this have over some of those lisp-based live audio programs like this one https://github.com/overtone/overtone/ ?

lol.
does really anyone still use that?

I know it was a fucking standard years ago but most cubasers I know went to protools and/or abLELton live

>>57793271
It never did, you could always use software E-Licenser. You buy USB E-Licenser when you often switch computers so you don't have to reinstall this shit every time

>>57793285
Acoustics researchers
Aphex Twin
Xenharmonic and microtonal composers,
because all mainstream DAWs like Cubase are dogshit for working with xenharmonic material. All the controls are designed to use the 12-EDO tuning system only.
Bottom line, if you aspire to more than plebeian pop productions, Cubase and the like are nearly useless.

>>57793233
It's not the drivers, it's just the DAWs that are all trash
Linux can easily have better latency than anything on windows

>>57793385
Apiece twin uses any and all random toasters that makes noise, like most good breakbeat producers

You're wrong about 12-step, the options is just buried in the non-normie drop down menu. Also Renoise is perfect for that micromanagement and extreme sample editing and isn't garbage foss

Decent, but all the professional DAW's are basically the same, just depends what interface you prefer. I find cubase really intuitive, unlike logic, which is aids.

Unlike pop garbage or memerap,
xenharmonic composition requires a solid theoretical foundation.

>>57793514
Pro tools is not the same as other daws, it's almost entirely recording-based, heavily hardware-based (proprietary at that), and isn't practical for anybody doing any in-the-box production. It's only "pro" for recording
Also Ableton is fantastic and extremely capable, don't be fooled by session view, even though it's a highlight of Ableton you don't have to use it (I never do actually, also I never DJ, just produce)
And of course, if a DAW is ReWire compatible, you can mix one daws functionality and another daws GUI for perfection (I use Ableton/Renoise, or as I like to call it, Ableton + Renoise)

>>57793539
I think there's a NES tracker game, and plenty of people hand make MIDI breakout cartridges and sell them
I don't think there's anything for SNES and up, as they moved away from a couple basic chips to real wave table synthesis

I prefer GNU Albeton + Renoise

I have learned music theory, that in no way whatsoever means mathrock in any form is good. That's probably why it failed and why "nobody understands muh music"
Not like cheaply quantized JavaScript music uses theory properly anyways

not only are you generalizing an entire genre, but you're saying that it is objectively bad. OBJECTIVITY IN MUSIC

why are the FL Studio bros the only one's not argueing? It's like they are happy with what they have and know that they can achieve anything if they just try!

>>57794032
Are you saying its objectively good? Because it's a dozen quantized loops played over and over?
Because you don't know how to do it on a regular DAW?

>>57794066
>Are you saying its objectively good?
literally how did you get this out of what i said? your comprehension is abysmal
if you believe in objectivity in music you are a fucking moron

So why do you like mathrock then? Because "logic tells you to"?

Learn how music actually works and come back when you're not retarded.
Also, I bet that track sounds like shit.

>>57795270

That's why FL Studio will always win. People make millions of dollars with what FL Studio can do. You guys argue about 'math rock,' buggy amateur programs and latency.

There isn't anything wrong with lmms, it's as good as fruity loops. It can use vst plugins which means it's as good as anything else out there.

After that it's just workflow preferences. Personally I don't like the fl workflow. People do and that's cool.

Reminder liam howlet (the prodigy) used a fucking w-30 to write the experience and jilted generation, arguably his two best albums. Albums that still rival edm made with fastly superior technology.

It's not the tools you use it's how you use them.

Trackers are just DAWs for edgelords.
Use independent synthesizer programs, learn to play an actual instrument, or learn to do audio output in a decent programming language.
