Zebra 2 Brain Overload

[mevla]

This is why forums can't have nice things.

Because the industry doesn't use Linux?

Audio industry you mean. Be specific. If not, you're also part of some cult.

You have to be specific. I am in the industry. Linux is used liberally in the industry. Although none of these companies, be them to assure spotless worldwide broadcast coverage, powering networks for transportation and utilities (hence very likely assuring your usage of electricity), protecting airports around the world, etc, etc, etc, never 'advertise' their use of Linux on their company web sites. They do not have to, and it is of no concern for their customers.

Your are limited by audio and popular customer software. That's 'your world'. You are seemingly limited in such a way that you might want to hammer your 'right' of having proof that Linux is used quite a lot in day-to-day world activities. Instead of hammering your almost divine 'right to question' though, and sticking to it - akin to a sect member in some respect - perhaps you could try to open up. But that's not easy and I will certainly not start to give any company names here. Hint: think about it next time you take a commercial plane, in just about 85% of the airports in the world.

That's adorable.

Really, not much of a difference between a cult follower and the reactions you are putting forth. But then, are cult followers making music at all ? Or are they just 'tools collectors' bantering about their collections ?

We’re on KVR, obviously we’re talking about the music world, nobody cares what other industries use Linux. We get it, you’re correct about a comment you made ten pages back in the exact off topic pedantic way one would expect from a diehard Linux user.

from a diehard Linux user.

Die hard?

Some reasons I choose linux

I can choose among many versions, according to the work at hand.
Studio 1337,
AVlinux
ioGnuLinux
Bodhi linux
pclinuxos
Each offers something special.
Graphics on one OS, audio on another, testing new things safely
on another, unique 64 and 32 bit setups, for classic software,
specific wine setups for particular software, like one for
Native Instruments, and one for IK, a 'catch-all setup
for items proven in working order...

This avoids bloatware and configuration conflicts, and is f-a-s-t
Linux has software package managers for repositories, which greatly simplify such system creations.

With microsoft, it's all jammed in one box, terrabyte city,
or else you buy dedicated extra computers.

On the 'free' software side, Rakarrack, Yoshimi, Hydrogen,
Guitarix, and LinuxSampler provide a solid base.
Rakarrack presents a panel grouping 8 out of around 70
effects. Each effect has typical controls, and some presets.
You can create and save as many unique panels of 8
as you can imagine, and use as many rakarrack instances
as the muse allows, and route them in and out of other
jackd apps and daws. Those 70 plugins can also be
used as stand-alones, with jalv-gtk

Yoshimi is a unique version of zynaddsubfx, keeping the
sound format, and 16 part multi-timbrality, while adding
an array of special uses for those seeking power.

Hydrogen uses samples to populate any patterns you make
using variable grids and mouseclicks, known mainly for drums,
but let the muse whisper, and the unicorns will follow

Guitarix is a full-featured ampsim and effects package,
designed for smooth and fast live performances, but enjoys
being a versatile studio app as well.

LinuxSampler comes in handy if you have some pet samples,
mainly people use wav, sfz and soundfonts.

Timemachine is a simple 24 bit recorder, I use it to record
the outputs of everything running, it's rare when a single daw app
is the sole voice to consider.

Speaking of daw apps, I'm blessed to have Reaper, Mixbus,
and Bitwig 8-track, their combined capabilities far exceed
my small-scale productions, but insure excellent finished results
are possible, in capable hands.

Windows plugins I can and do use in wine, or native-linux versions:
U-he ACE, Bazille, Hive, Repro, Zebra, and ColourCopy,
both linux versions, and windows versions-in-wine

discoDSP Bliss sampler, Discovery Pro, and Vertigo, linux versions,
or windows versions in wine

NI Reaktor, Razor, and Prism, Replika-lite, Phasis-lite,
and their many generous free-player offerings

IK Sampletank 2/3x, and libs, SonikSynth2 etc Syntronik freebie,
and Amplitube 4.

Seaweed Audio Fathom
2nd Sense Wiggle
DS Audio Tantra and ThornCM
Kernu Cream

KV331 Synthmaster 2.x and Synthmaster One

BlueCat Freeamps and effects bundle

DrumCore3

Cakewalk Dimension Pro, Rapture, and z3ta+ 1.3

Tone2 Firebird (now free)

MaxSynths collection (now free)

Ugo collection (now free)
Algomusic collection (now free)
H.G. Forune collection (now free)
Synth 1 Entourage version

I'll stop there, as I feel kinda brain overloaded...
'linux diehard?
OK, the shoes fit, so I'll ware them,
and live free, pay for my tools,
make music, and prosper.
Cheers

[glokraw]

To be fair and balanced, I still can't get Serum to run
it's gui
but I did have the 32 bit version going once
it seems some master-of-wine-over-rides will be
needed, I can use reapers sliders gui, load .fxp presets
the slow way, but using the real gui would be cool
(Zebra3 is ahead in the line, all else must wait,
and at that point, it'll be a long long wait!!! )
Cheers

[glokraw]

And from the confessional closet, last night...
I admit it... I launched win 7, and installed
Structure, Strike, Vacuum Pro, and Boom,
from some of Air's AIEP3 no-brainer sales.

Save me, Linas, save me!!!

People started to extrapolate to other domains. Have to reply at the same level.

Diehard ? Since you're talking about past replies in this thread, I have mentioned that I use plugins such as Tone2 synths, all Voxengo, a good part of Melda plugins, Synthmaster2, Harmor, Harmless, Sytrus, Morphine, Sakura, all Sugar Bytes, most Sonic Charge, Blue2, Predator2, Go2 and Fathom.

And so padillac, what's your creative output ? Can we hear some ? Just to hear, It could be real good, you know. But is there anything at all ?

[mevla]

^^ This guy gets it.

And it prevents you from showing any creation you have made.

[wagtunes]

^^ This guy gets it.

I'm going to state a fact. This only applies to me and I can't say that it will apply to everybody who makes music.

The music that I have made (tons of it) I could not have made on Linux. No how, no way.

You need to see creations?

Here you go. A playlist of over 300 songs all done over the past 3 years.

Well the guy is challenging people to post their music, like that's some kind of confirmation that Windows or MAC trumps Linux. Personally, I think this whole conversation is ridiculous. Linux would not allow me to do the things I do, PERIOD. End of story.
