Re: Migrating from Garage Band to Free Software: Choices?

[Paul Davis <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The right software will depend HUGELY on what sort of workflow is sought after ... for example, here are some different ones:

    * creating traditional scores with notation, listening (somehow) while working on them

    * EDM (any of the 291 sub-genres), with samples, loops, beats and FX

    * recording people playing instruments

    * 1 microphone, 1 guitar pickup

the right tool for each of these will (on LInux at least) be different.
