It mostly needs a good single unit hardware (PC) and few hardware sound modules. Producing music doesn't require a farm of PCs nor requires cloud-based computing. So very very few musicians know how to use Linux, very few companies are interested in porting their drivers to Linux, and very few companies (if they ever) want to write their software to work under Linux given that the os itself is nothing like Mac OS X for example. These are the problems with Linux when you want to commercially use it: Linux and music production don't go with each other. This desktop is 3 years old, and will likely last a few more years.īut the purchase of the next PC might be the time to switch.

meaning better reliability.īut that's a pipe dream, yes? So maybe it's time to just jump ship and run Linux. It'll look like Windows, but the guts will be Linux. and put an end to these crappy unreliable updates. Put Linux in there, keep the Windows UI (yes, that's a lot of work). I really think Microsoft should dump Windows. Given that the updates offer little more than crap, I just cannot see taking a risk for no benefit. There are too many reports of this broken and that broken. But only because I've disabled all updates. I wonder whether there are any Linux/VST users out there? I ask because I'm getting fed up with Windows.
