  1. I repeat Linux is very good for certain uses. Especially for servers. But does that mean that there is a large ecosystem for music around Linux?

    Without ideology, you have to look at reality as it is. How many professional studios use Linux for production?.

    The fact that Linux is great for servers doesn't matter if it's harder to find the software you want for music. I buy an android smatphone it's because I can install my applications. And not because android is based on Linux.

    If I need to buy a car, I don't need a jet engine just because those engines are absolutely more efficient.


    I used Ubuntu Studio for a long time with qtractor, hydrogen, zynAddsubFx , Calf and others software. (I dont like Ardour workflow, that not depends on windows/linux ). all these software are ok, but to switch to a more efficient daw I had to switch to CbB and S1. And so I changed my OS. I chose the OS according to my softwares and not the other way around. The goal is to do music not computer

    Iinux is on most of the computers on the planet, not windows, there is a reason. Do you know what version of windows NASA use.

    Ok linux is very good for some things(I am also a Linux user since many years) but linux just for linux has  no sense. If you want to make music you will also need compatible softwares, plugins, audio interface etc , computer technology is not the only thing to take into account., maybe it is a  vicious circle but if linux is not used by a lot of people daw/plugins company will not have to spend a lot of money for few people. Will you be ok to pay a linux cakewalk version 2 to 3 times more expensive to to make it profitable ?  

    Idem for plugins , hardware ?

  3. I think you shouldn't have a religion about operating systems. The most important are software and plugins. OS is secondary
    I started computer music with Linux / Ubuntu studio because I got a laptop and I didn't want to pay for a license for windows.
    Conclusion: I had to use specific amateur software with fewer features than those I had with Windows.
    The concern does not come from Linux but from the ecosystem of software and plugins.
    In the end, it made me waste my time and I switched to windows in order to have more choices regarding software.
     PS it's been 20 years since I heard that linux is better and that it will replace windows. ==>3% of market share
      Today for the desktop it still remains a geek thing

    And there it is again. It's never asctuall "Calkewalk" itself with this forum! 

    As several people have already indicated, even if it is a cakewalk bug, there is an ecosystem and a context behind it. In a system with complex interactions it is important to have all the elements. Cakewalk (or any other software) does not work from scratch. Would you go to your doctor and just say you're sick without giving any other information?

    Thanks Sakini...

    Probably the same. In the about box, which build does it show?

    I doubt it will matter to me much, but something’s wrong. This build only contains one item that affects me (and it's in a good way), but it's a minor issue. I am comfortable with the EA release.

     

    in about box I have 2021.11 build 10

    So Far? Can't get the update.

    I'm running EA 2021.11.10 and opening Cake brings no toast. Invoking check for update tells me I'm up to date with 2021.09?

     

    Me too but I thinks 2021.11.10 is the last version.

    EA 2021.11 build 10 seems to be the same with  release 2021.11.
