Anyone interested?

i'm interested and i'm inside europe, but out of budget right now.

48k. because it's always possible to downsample when needed, but upsampling is pointless in terms of overall sound quality. and because some of my equipment can't do 96k at all (due to hardware/software limitations) or without turning off some features (because higher sample rate requires extra DSP ...

the most underestimated linux sequencer.

from my experiemnce:
if you are using foreign software on wine in your workflow — i'd suggest 16.04.
on 18.04, things that worked flawlessly in 14.04 and 16.04, stopped working for me (e.g. NI FM8, Novation V-Station).

there are quite a lot of topics here and there about running non-linux audio software under wine. the proposition is to make a dedicated place for discussing such kind of issuses. running windows software is the popular practice, and everyone here knows it. (btw, i'm doing it myself too.) moreover, ...

KXstudio repos are much more important for the whole linux audio community than a conventional ISO-packed distro.
i think, the latter should be considered as a bonus that used to be, nice to have, but could be sacrificed.

well, it's very difficult to name particular reasons for using linux as a desktop platform for almost 20 years, and as an audio production platform for almost 18 years. (what software was available 18 years ago, you may wonder? ha! i was obsessed with csound !) but after reading facebook, i realised...

it can't.
plugin that does work with hydrogen drumkits (either files & dirs) is drmr.

just 2 cents for those who are curious about all this snap packaging thing. snap packaging system is advertised as the deliverance from distro-specific dependencies hell, but for some reason no one talks about its drawbacks. snap packaging potentially means not only significant disk space overhead (...

looked at R16, but then LiveTrak L-12 was released, and it's completely operational in linux when in class compliant mode.

raw is the safest, either in terms of latency and devices visibility.

hehe ) as a happy preenFM2 owner, i'm saving up to buy some more DIY kits )
the nearest order is going to be a a few axolotis, and then this one http://www.tubeohm.com/page8.html#
