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.

Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) for people who want to record, edit, mix and master audio and MIDI projects. When you need complete control over your tools, when the limitations of other designs get in the way, when you plan to spend hours or days working on a session, Ardour is there to make things work the way you want them to.

There is a YouTube channel called "TekSyndicate". The dude wants to switch to Linux so bad, but he always complains about the lack of professional software to create his music on on Linux. Would this app be enough for him? I don't know anything about creating music, but thought I'd ask if some of you do know music stuff.

Bitwig is by far the best option on linux rn. Ardour is too barebones and focused on recording rather than midi

He mentions something about the software he uses on windows and how he has purchased a ton of "plugins" which, again, I have no idea what they are.

For plugins there is "yabridge"

Which I assume is a pain to make work on Linux?

I mean it works pretty flawlessly for me and I make music all the time. Some plugins don't work the best but most of them are working well
