Hi from Rio de Janeiro

Hi,
My name's Pierre Dechery, I'm a programmer and musician from Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.
I started to use Linux in 2016 to do programming. I didn't knew back then how this simple choice would make me an entirely new type of programmer (to my mind, a better one).
I heard about Ardour in 2017, when I was already trying to make my way into digital music production. My main goal was (still is) just to record my own songs, with everything I had in mind for them. Since moving from Linux wasn't an option (still isn't) I've installed it, bought a license and started my way into it.
I've used Reaper and Audacity before and found Ardour a bit menacing at first. It took me some time but my workflow with this DAW gets smoother everyday. With time I started to include other software like Hydrogen and Guitarix (this one very recently) in the mix. I know there's more nice stuff out there and maybe here I can learn about it as well as share what I've already learned.
My main styles are Rock, Blues and Brasilian Music in general, which, like every genre, is a little world in itself. To try to resume things a bit I'd say I like 70's and 90's rock the most, but there's a lot of things I'm into that would be hard to list here.
So this is it, thanks for having me here and let's make music!
Pierre
