RE: Studio Setup 101: How to Choose the Right Computer and DAW for Your Home Recording Needs

in BlockTunes2 years ago

I played around with Linux for a while, and yes a couple of the DAWs are okay, the main thing is the hardware compatibility. It's not a very popular option with many musicians, so that's why I didn't delve into it at all.

But thanks for the info! This can help some readers for sure.

Sort:  

I think compatibility is less of a problem than previously as USB interfaces need to be 'class compliant' to work with things like iPads. The problem can be when there are software only controls, but I have seen someone did a GUI for the Focusrites. I will test that when I get one and, of course, I will write it up on Hive.

Just found this that lists the DAWs you can use on Linux. They detail the pros and cons.

I think there are some other musicians using open source on Hive. Perhaps we need a community for that. You would think Hivers would favour open source solutions.
