Raises hand...
I use Linux exclusively for sequencing and recording (I have a second
machine running XP that I use exclusively for plugins only, almost
like a Receptor or Plugzilla kind of thing) ... my studio isn't
'mainstream' by any stretch of the imagination, but I am starting to
record people other than myself, now that I have two isolation booths
in my studio now and am aiming at going semi-pro.
In fact, yesterday, I spent quite a few hours recording a band for
their 5 song demo... 8 tracks recording all at once (via Delta1010)
and not a single xrun in all that time. In fact, I don't remember the
last time I got an xrun... I can't even say my DAW is exactly cutting
edge, just a 1.4GHz Athlon Gentoo machine with 512M of RAM (and
firewire drives).
