It's because of the latter. If you could, theoretically you could run at 8 samples in 96k. RME cards can do that in Linux and are fully supported. In the end, it doesn't matter "why"... the reality is the same. It can't be done. All those top-notch virtual instruments/effects are simply not available. One could fantasize about an OS far more dedicated/optimized for DAW purposes. BeOS was one such promising OS. No profit. No development. No future. The DAW using market is extremely small. The Linux DAW using community is a tiny percentage of that. It's not economically feasible for companies like Native Instruments, UA, Line-6, etc to spend massive development hours on such a small niche.

Since Win10 was released, I've yet to have a single client who's wanted Cortana enabled/running. Ironically, a friend of mine worked on Cortana. Tim Noonan is a great guy, great musician, and super sharp. Edited February 16, 2021 by Jim Roseberry More details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soundwise Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 1 hour ago, Esteban Villanova said: Hi, I’m running AV Linux (newbie) and it’s working well so far. How do you install plugins from packages? Noramlly, since it's a Debian based distribution, running "sudo apt install package_name" is the main approach, if the required program or utility exists in the repository. Depending on the package, you may need to use other installation methods, described somewhere in READMEs and/or HOWTOs. But AVLinux used to have a utility to install software provided and supported by distro developers. Not sure if it's still there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had exactly the same experience as you. I tried the 'imitation' software that always 'nearly' did what you wanted, but was buggy as hell. The word processing software that 'almost' did as much as an old version of Word. I even tried the free DAW... Then I went back to Microsoft. Lynx is great for coders who find great pleasure in coding for the sake of coding. For a musician, it's just a waste of valuable studio time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still fail to see how lynx sprays, lynx online coding platform and studio time are related to what is being discussed. I was genuinely interested when you mentioned Lynx in this thread. Now it seems it's a waste of time, just as you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the advantages of staying clean and sober is the ability to tell a penguin from a lynx. Just saying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
