From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

In the past couple of years they've really ramped up development of tools for creating electronic music, such as the clip launcher and beat grid. I have only really used it for pro-tools style recording, when I started using it there wasn't even any midi capability. I bet it'd be pretty good for electronic music now, given the right synth plugins.

My favourite thing about ardour is the work flow and the anywhere-to-anywhere audio routing.

I've been using it for 13 years and love it!

Here's some music I used to make with Ardour, Hydrogen and Renoise: https://on.soundcloud.com/QrxQw
