Sure everything from PD to phasex to ghostess to ardour is great stuff, but the ability to 1) load a project in one go and 2) integrate as tightly as possible with plugins attract *some* people (obviously you're not one of them, that's fine). NB: I did a CD last year and one this year with my electronic project, both 100% linux. The first one was a done with a intricate web of all the usual suspects (muse, zyn, ams, pd, ardour, phasex, ghostess, specimen + some I forgot), the second is done in a $50 native linux host, and it's been a much more enjoyable experience and I feel the result is better in every way. NB2: I'm currently on a quest to get pd/sc/csound working as native vst plugin. Of course I don't believe in presets fits all. I personally try to develop all my sounds myself, and would love to plug in to the power of csound totally integrated into my host. -- Atte http://atte.dk http://modlys.dk http://virb.com/atte _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
