The world of music production is dominated by Apple with Windows running a distant second. Thanks to DAWs like Reaper and open source plung-ins constantly being developed, music production on Linux doesn’t seem like such a crazy idea anymore.

  • It’s good to know amp sims and VSTs on Linux have come far! The drums still aren’t where I’d like them to be to switch and I’ve tried several times to get Steven Slate Drums and Superior Drummer working with a VST bridge in Ubuntu Studio, with no luck. Still sticking with Apple for now, but at least I finally have Windows out of my house.

      I saw that Ableton Live 12 is going to support my old 2015 MBP, which is nice, but it would be so much nicer if we had a Wine/Proton equivalent project for Mac apps. M2 MBPs are nice but it’d be nicer if I could use PC hardware with Linux running Windows and Mac software. Native would be nicest but, baby steps.
