[linux-audio-user] Acid for Linux ?

[Patrick Shirkey]

If you want to achieve similar things in Linux to what you can do with 
ACID then you have to learn the Un*x paradigm. Essentially *everything* 
is modular. Now we have Jack which allows you to connect multiple apps. 
When used together they are capable of doing as much if not more than ACID.

While you currently find the interface in ACID to be designed for the 
way your mind works, if you want to use Linux apps successfully you will 
have to get used to this new mindset, design your own, or convince the 
creators of ACID to port to Linux.

IMO two out of three aint bad ;)

Try looking into Pd, spiralsynthmodular, bristol synth, mustajurri, 
freaktweak, alsamodularsynth, alsaplayer, jack rack, gdam, terminatorX

Of the above mustajurri, bristol synth, gdam and terminatorX don't have 
support for JACK.

========================================

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No! 
We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything 
I've ever done.
