On these platforms it is normal to say that you have to choose a particular DAW or a set of tools based on what you want.

The thing to understand about Linux Audio as a whole is that it is different from the world of Windows or Mac. Whether this is temporary or not is difficult to say. This has even been part of a discussion at Linux Audio Conference 2016 in Berlin. In my perception and based on some objective measurements made by members of Linux Audio mailing list of its dwindling activity, the community has significantly slowed down. The article is called “Linux Audio 2012: Is Linux Audio moving forward?” The fact that it is still mostly relevant today speaks louder than anything about the progress of Linux Audio as a platform for practicing musicians. Nevertheless, I have an article dated October 2012 which is fairly accurate even today. As I started writing this overview, I realized that the difficulty of such an undertaking comes from the amount of details one has to go into in order to explain exactly what kind of a beast Linux Audio is, and then allow the reader to realize whether this is what she needs. I have found that accurate information about Linux is not easy to come by.

Typically, a person new to Linux Audio is presented with an eye candy screenshot and is told that Linux can offer “vast amount of great, professional-grade free audio software”, “hundreds of native Linux plugins - both instruments and effects”, etc.
One can always say “I am using that great plugin which Louigi Verona had incorrectly lambasted in his review”.
Even if eventually one finds himself seeing things differently, I cover enough ground for him to be able to quickly orient himself and explore Linux Audio on his own. So I probably love your one knob plugin anyway :)Įither way, I believe this overview can be a good starting point for anyone interested. Besides, I am a geek and I love tinkering with weird shit.

If you are a developer of any of the software mentioned and I say something negative about it, don’t take it personally. If you find a factual error, don’t hesitate to drop me an email. And I hope that my overview would be useful both to new comers and long-time Linux Audio people. Still, what the reader might expect from this essay is a very rigorous account of my own understanding of the current state of Linux Audio, coupled with my needs as a practicing musician, working primarily in the realm of electronic music. Thus, if you are a long-time Linux user, do understand that you are not necessarily the target audience here. Therefore, without opting for a statistics based, data oriented approach no balanced overview is possible.Īdditionally, this article is strongly geared towards informing a non-Linux user, someone who has expectations wildly different from a hardcore tinkerer. What is unimportant or uninteresting to me could be significant to others - and vice versa. I do try to be as objective as I currently can, but I also realize that I am limited to my perspective.
I’ve been around Linux Audio for 7 years now, have always been active both as a musician and as a member of the Linux Audio community, and continue to be active today, albeit a little less so.īut the important message is that I am not positioning it as research or a completely balanced objective overview. It might be of interest to the public because I claim it to be a rather informed opinion. Although I have written a bit about Linux Audio and even spoke about it, I did not have anything that can be used as an overview, especially for those who consider switching to Linux, and are trying to find out what to expect.
