Hi Robin :) Pixar makes audio productions using Linux? The NASA is using Ardour to record communication, not to produce MIDI/hard disk recording music ;). Replacing a pickup for your Stratocaster doesn't need that much knowhow as setting up a Linux DAW and btw. if I wouldn't set up the Linux DAW by myself, but use a Linux audio distro, Linux audio wouldn't work on my machine. Not upgrading a Linux audio DAW is stupid, when you're missing features new versions of software will provide, not to mention that for good reasons I prefer Arch over Debian. I'm using both, but the rolling release Arch is much more stable, than Debian, since for audio Debian stable IMHO is a no-go you need to mix stable, testing and unstable. YMMV, but you can't ignore that _all_ famous and even most hobby studios don't use Linux, but they use proprietary Apple or Windows solutions instead. A college and some other institutions, homerecording folks, have some luxury the averaged musician, engineer who needs to make a living from audio production, doesn't have. 2 Cents, Ralf _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
