It works most easy when you are out for 4/4 stuff structured as common in pop. But: 1.) play a few tracks free jazz or 12-tone style compositions and apply some evil fantasy regarding sound and you have something that would be considered "avantgarde" with bitwig the same as easy. 2.) with some basic effort you can turn the clip-matrix into a tool to compose music more or less the same as singular as you can with Csound and the likes Yet to me it is in fact too easy. I'll stick with Ardour3, for I use the in-track editing of regions most of the time and the tracks in Bitwig are meant for recording music played by people, who learned how to stay exactly in sync with a sequencer and to place loops on them that are tailored for regular music. > > CSound & SuperCollider contribute to a very different use-case. > > Linux audio in general does not (IMO) offer a whole lot for the use-case of > electro / radio styles of music, with software geared at ease of production > of such music for musicians.
