Experience is the key ingredient. Some commercial support never hurts, too.

Hi Patrick,
I've been down this rabbit hole 1000 times in the last 4-5 years.
There is nothing in the Linux-Audio world even remotely like Live or
Acid Pro in terms of handling the scaling of pitch and tempo across
all samples. I just updated to Acid Pro 6 this week for $99 since that
sort of stuff I do playing with Acid Pro is nearly impossible in any
Linux app I've found.
anyone try Freeycle?

I looked at it but since it advertizes itself as a beat slicer it
didn't seem to have the multitrack capabilities that are required to
put a whole song together.
I think th eunderlying technology could be helpful in getting to an
Acid Pro/Ableton Live/Fruity Loops type program. My sense is that this
question has been asked so many times that the real issue is finding a
developer passionate about it. There's no reason at all this couldn't
be done in Linux if someone wanted to make it happen.
Cheers,
Mark
