Hi

Yes, I don't understand why people mean linux audio is a mess, last
day's I have setup a new box with debian/sid and it took me a half day
to get a full featured rt audio/midi environment on the run. It's like
always in life, if you wont to use a tool, you must know how it work's.
There is no diff in this case to windos or mac. Only, when you have
already learn how one tool works, may you don't wont to learn how a
other tool work to receive the same results. So the price for the switch
to linux is a small piece of your brain witch you must open for basic
linux knowledge. :-)

With knowledge you need half a day, for Windows people without knowledge 
need half an hour ;). But comparisons like this are useless. The 
conclusion that people started with Windows and don't know Linux isn't 
true for the scene were I'm from. We started with the C64 etc. and then 
we used Linux only and because of troubles with real-time audio some 
switched to Windows. As an audio engineer on work I had to work with 
Microsoft and Apple and less trouble, at home I'm using Linux with lot 
of troubles.

  


Again. What is your point? Many people use Linux Audio tools and infrastructure for professional use everyday.

All you are saying is that Linux is difficult for you and your friends to use and Microsoft is easy.

Why do you insist on continually saying this to the LAD list? We know that there are limitations to the Linux Audio system. No one has ever claimed otherwise.

Because you very rarely have useful feedback, as far as I can tell, you are a troll.
