Aside from Bitwig's shitty pricing plan, if it had a midi workflow like FL Studio it'd be an amazing choice for Linux.

I don't see any problem in Bitwig pricing. For my usage, I would not need highest priced version, and scheme where you pay for updates is ok for me. When they had some special pricing on 20 years (or something) celebration, I paid update plan, but haven't activated it because old version is fine for me, and for my use I see no interesting features. But sure, I use like 1% of its features, working with my recorded guitar audio mostly.

The russian paied troll army is sitting here and trying to push their agenda: slowly and silently.

China made me a better offer. :wink:

May I ask if you even do any kind of music production on Linux?

I hope you don't use the beautiful LSP plugins in that case.

Any price for software is too high. Source code should be free at least.

Sure would be nice if others would slave away for my benefit without it costing me anything.

I think Magnus Robot Fighter might have come around to fix that.
