I am trying to make music on Linux for two weeks now.
I am using LMMS
I am also reading alot and but I can t find an answer to some questions.
1) If I want to make some music like Jean Michel Jarre did,
Can i do this in LMMS or do I need aditional soft synths and or more
plugins ?
Yes.
Get Zynaddsubfx, Alsa modular synth and Specimen at least.
LMMS seems to be very techno orientated ?
quite a bit but you can do other stuff with it also
Something about time.
Can LMMS play music like some Jazz, whih in time is 4/6 ? or 2/3 ?
I think I can do everything as long as its even, but I wonder if I can
play 2/3 and things like 7/8 and so on with a sequenser ? (not that I am
any close to play this kind of complicated music yet)
You can compose music in every timing you wish to with any serious
seqencer and lmms is serious enough - it just defaults to 4/4 but this
can be changed (though the beat-module is 4/4 only, you can work with
different timings using the Piano-Roll editor.
3) Can I use vst plugins without wine ?
In a word: probably:

it is somwhat hard to install/setup in Ubuntu but should work OK with
some effort. Of course the VST-plugs need to be open source to be
rebuild as Linux .so-libs. Dlls work with wine only.
good luck ;-)
