Perhaps sometimes some VSTs hide bad code behind good GUI. But another frequent case is that good code is hidden behind good GUI.<br>The only way to know is to try out, but yet again - in the world of VSTs there are things to try out. In the free world the amount of plugins<br>
is very small and there are not a lot of things to try out in the first place.<br><br>I do not think I have a clear opinion on this. And I would be very interested for you, devs of audio software, to share your opinions. But lately,<br>
after having been quite tired by fighting the limitations linux audio has today for making certain types of music, I&#39;ve been wondering whether<br>some software is better off being proprietary. It might not be reviewed code, but it works. And I don&#39;t really want anyone to be able to change<br>
code of, say, FL Studio, because it is a great piece of software already. I don&#39;t remember ever encountering a bug while working in it.<br><br>Of course, I personally switched to Linux because of philosophical principles. And now I find myself confused. Is it possible that some software<br>
is too complex, needs too tight a development and thus good funding to be free? And instead needs to be proprietary to get things done?<br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Louigi Verona<br><a href="http://www.louigiverona.ru/">http://www.louigiverona.ru/</a><br>
