TapeOp looks like a nice magazine. However from
glimpsing over their
webpage and from reading the term "pro audio" here, it always seems to
involve some kind of recording business. To me, "pro audio" is much
more than just mastering and recording. A Pro is someone, who makes a
living out of something. Composers, who use Linux, like Orm Finnendahl
or Fernando, are as much Pro Linux Audio as R Parker is, as are
video/sound artists using Pd on Linux etc. There already are quite a
lot of people doing such stuff on Linux using free software.
That's why it's called TapeOp (the guy that runs the analog tape machine
in the recording/mastering studio). It's not about all pro audio,
mostly just recording and mastering.
