Muse is the app that convinced me to start making music on Linux (Being used to cubasis in those days) & I still love it. I find it productive and intuitive. The team are friendly & I have got help & bug fixes through the using mailing list. A great app.

I just found enlightenment counter intuitive. it's diferent from all the others. a new concept. It's like switching an OS, you gotta get used to it. With respect, I used it for several _months_ & I still maintain that it is counter intuitive. I regard that time as time wasted & am sure many on this...

The Dream Studio forum is really helpful as well. The chances are Dick MacInnis (the dream studio dev) will be around & answer your post himself.

Hi Phil I started on cassette multi tracking. It does help because a lot of the software is built to mimic the hardware that we used to use. Alsa is the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture & is the bedrock of your PC's sound - the part that makes sound work at all. Pulse is a sound server & is designe...

Hi If you use the 'export song' option on the file menu in Hydrogen you can export your Drum tracks as seperate wav files. Just look for the drop down menu that says 'Export to a single track' and change it to 'Export to seperate tracks.' You can then import the wav files to the DAW of your choice. ...

It has to be said that Ubuntu Studio is a different beast from stock Ubuntu. There is no unity & all the associated nonsense. In a similar vein, I am currently using Bodhi which, again, is Ubuntu based. Though an early adopter, I feel I can no longer use stock Ubuntu on usability issues alone. Howev...
