Interesting but not what I'm looking for...
Thanks anyway
Yes, I would agree - things simply aren't that mature in Linux for music professionals - certainly when you start comparing against programs like SX and it's competition. However, having watched, first hand, the visual FX market on Linux moving from a hacker's curiosity to one of the primary OS's in the business, anything's possible down the line. I would mention, though, that VFX requires a steady stream of experienced technical support staff to keep things moving, indeed I think this is what pushed Linux to the forefront, but music nowadays seems to be increasingly becoming about one person behind a midi controller. There may not be the incentive for people to leave their Macs and PCs to do music. I'd be first in line if it were to happen, though. :) Cheers, J.C. -- John Coldrick www.axyzfx.com Axyz Animation Houdini/Renderman/Discreet 425 Adelaide St W 416-504-0425 Toronto, ON Canada jc@axyzfx.com M5V 1S4 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "I like work ...
