I have some question regarding versions of Ardour
that people are using.
Currently, I am running Fedora 20, and their
software repository has two versions of Ardour available:
ardour-2.8.16-12.fc20
ardour-3.5.403-1.fc20
I seem to recall that in the past, despite
Ardour3 being available, some people were still preferring
to use Ardour2. This seems to be supported by the
fact that Fedora offers both versions.
Why might one prefer Ardour2 over Ardour3?
I think some people stayed with A2 just because it was working well for them and didn't want to run risks or change their workflow.
Now that a more robust Ardour 4 is out, I guess usage of A2 will decrease even more. I would not recommend anyone to install A2 or A3 nowadays. It may take a while for A4 to arrive at official Fedora, Ubuntu etc repos, but in the meantime you can get it directly from ardour.org (KXStudio repositories for Ubuntu users already have A4).

Thanks
