From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

DAW software for Linux? (sh.itjust.works)

Currently looking for a good DAW to run on Linux. I used Ableton Live 11 Standard back on Windows, got it running decently on Fedora with Wine, but kind of want to explore some other options.

Before I used Live, LMMS was actually what I used first while I was learning. I never did anything too real with it so I'm not honestly too sure what it's capable of, but it also seems to be abandonware? Hasn't been updated since 2020, what's that about?

I'm not 100% dead set on using FOSS btw, for this anyways. It would definitely be a plus, but i'll use proprietary if it runs well on Linux and is good at what it does. Are there any other options I should check out or look into? I've heard pretty good things about ardour and bitwig but don't know too much about them.

Lmms seems to still have activity on its github, though you're right that there were no proper release since 2020-2021. Most options i know of have been presented by others, i'll just put another reference to yabridge, as it could be useful to get some of your vst up and running.
