It works most easy when you are out for 4/4 stuff structured as common

1.) play a few tracks free jazz or 12-tone style compositions and apply
some evil fantasy regarding sound and you have something that would be
considered "avantgarde" with bitwig the same as easy.
2.) with some basic effort you can turn the clip-matrix into a tool to
compose music more or less the same as singular as you can with Csound
and the likes
Yet to me it is in fact too easy. I'll stick with Ardour3, for I use the
in-track editing of regions most of the time and the tracks in Bitwig
are meant for recording music played by people, who learned how to stay
exactly in sync with a sequencer and to place loops on them that are
tailored for regular music.
But Csound and Supercollider are not suitable for
making music. They're
fine if you're some kind of autistic savant computer genius, but utterly
fucking useless if you're a musician.
Lets keep "Use-case" in mind.
Bitwig contributes in to certain use case, for making music (geared towards
electronic styles, although not solely those).
CSound & SuperCollider contribute to a very different use-case.
Linux audio in general does not (IMO) offer a whole lot for the use-case of
electro / radio styles of music, with software geared at ease of production
of such music for musicians. Its a techie environment.
My 2 cents :) -Harry
