       You may disagree with my opinion, but I still prefer to install FL Studio on Linux to mess with samples and stuff like that. I love LMMS, but it lacks quite a few features I like using.

       @pinkopalest FL Studio is a nice tool for music production. It's not very expensive (and you can easily find cracked versions of it :blobcatpirate:), yet it's quite nice.

       @getimiskon I 100% agreeFL Studio do be the best option for sequencer type beats. Wish LMMS was more capable

       @dendy I have some audio issues sometimes, but it works pretty well. Maybe I'll eventually mess with pipewire and wine to get a way around it.

       @dendy @getimiskon I'm sorry, it's not an opinion to surrender your freedom to proprietary malware for mere convenience, that's cuckery.

       @Suiseiseki I know it fucking sucks to use proprietary software, and I prefer to avoid it. But let's be real, audio applications have always been quite a bit of pain on Linux. For example, the sampler on LMMS lacks quite a few useful features.@dendy

       @laru yeah, working with audio isn't just a simple thing. You may need specific tools and plugins for your own stuff, and some programs will work better for your purpose than others. @dendy @Suiseiseki

       @Suiseiseki >But you don't actually end up avoiding it, even when a suitable free software replacement exists that is only slightly less convenient?I guess I could try something like that on Ardour, never really tried it there (also it feels clunky). You may be right, there might be a piece of software that does that right.>On systemd/Linux, you're in for some audio pain, sure.I don't even use systemd on my system. So far, pipewire is alright, it works very nicely with applications that work with JACK. ALSA isn't that great for low-latency stuff, like recordings.As for LMMS itself, it's getting improved quite a bit (they recently added some neat plugins), but still needs work to use. I could try adding the features, but I'm not good at programming.From your post, I can clearly see you haven't worked with audio before.

ALSA isn't that great for low-latency stuff, like recordings.The backend for pipewire and JACK is ALSA you know?I've found raw ALSA to be so low-latency that it overcomes poorly designed PCIe firewire cards.>I can clearly see you haven't worked with audio before. I work with audio with straight ffmpeg sometimes.

       @Suiseiseki @getimiskon just build it from source, I don't quite get why they haven't published any binary releases for so long

       @mononoaware I hope it doesn't require a fuckton of dependencies to build

       @getimiskon ok seeing now you use void, well even it's the musl version I had no issues on Alpine, maybe some vsts won't work though

       @mononoaware I use the version with the GNU coreutils, but still I don't want to deal with building them from source. I already use a nightly version.
