That's ok for my private needs, but the absolutely no-go, if you make a living from making music. Linux is for hobbyist enthusiasts only. I'm one ;), but I also made a living by making and mixing music and soundtracks. When doing it, it always was done completely without Linux ... at least without Linux PCs, some stand alone gear using Linux, is something completely different. I'm aware that now many people from this list will disagree. What are they doing, for what companies/schools are they doing the engineering, who will pay the contract penalty when they fail? Jump into the "real" music industry shark tank and use Linux _PCs_! Good luck! Regards, Ralf
