I thinks its more about what make you feel confortable and let your creativity flow. I also love experimenting with Supercollider (typically through Sonic Pi), but you need to program your own patches. It's finicky af, however, and you need to really understand what you're doing to program it. My favorite synth is ZynAddSubFx, because it can do almost anything. ![]() The interface is a lot more intuitive to me. If I want to work on some EDM or play around with an idea, however, I use LMMS, which is a lot better suited to loops and experimentation, imo. There's a lot that is challenging for me to pick up, but I believe I can take what I learn in Ardour and apply it to most audio installations I encounter. Right now, I'm focusing on Ardour for three reasons:Ģ) I'm tracking live instruments, and it seems to be well suited to that.ģ) I feel like understanding Ardour will teach me a lot about audio engineering generally, which is something I want to pursue. I do hope that users' answers can help you determine where you might want to focus your energies, though. Nothing is "best" until you can articulate what you need from a DAW. Within the Linux environment, the same thing is true. Outside of Linux, there are a dozen professional DAWs out there, because they each have their own strengths and weaknesses, or scratch a particular itch. There are lots of great FX in VST or LV2 format, but i find that not much can compete with the instrument plugins that i use. i like it because it's no fuss, performance is good and i can setup wine's environment in fsthost. If i'm running my plugins as standalone, i tend to use FSTHost. it's dope and IMHO, better than every other wine VST bridge. for these plugins, if in Ardour - yabridge all the way. unfortunately, there are no native VSTs that compete with these, IMHO - so i have little choice but to use Wine. i actually play my keyboard, more than i compose.Īs far VST instruments - I use Native Instruments Komplete and AAS Lounge Lizard EP-4, almost entirely. Myself, i tend to use Ardour - although, i don't do a ton of recordings. i never got hooked on Renoise, but i'm definitely a demoscene tracker kid. Then there are the mod tracker kids, who will likely be using Renoise. i think Tradition Waveform is rather underrated, but also seems to be quite good for this kind of thing. ![]() I don't think there is a consensus, people tend to have different goals and workflows, so they'll adopt whatever software fits their needs.Īrdour or Mixbus for those that are after a traditional / Protools-like DAW.įor the electronic musician, who needs a DAW with excellent midi sequencing, or a better workflow for live use Bitwig Studio will likely be best.
