Made (created) in such a way that Linux is the operating system used for all the software components involved in the process to run. Then, people might ask, why make it a point ? People are not saying "made with Windows" after all. It is then that what makes Linux different comes through and it is why the point is made. One of those differences is that Linux is an Open and free operating system with no hidden software parts basically. It is not a proprietary OS owned by a company. That point only makes a large difference as a statement, as a choice, perhaps even as a political statement. That synths being used, DAWs, etc.. are full-fledged commercial products does not matter. By choosing Linux a (creative) statement is made. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
