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.

If you use Linux to edit audio, mix songs and work with audio in general, including having trouble making certain audio hardware work, it's your chance to join a community effort to make Linux audio creation better and more accesible.

The Audio Creation SIG (Special Interest Group) is a hub for creators to help each other create and together try and find ways to get better hardware and VST support for Linux.

If you use a linux audio distro linux is easier than windows. Everything works out of the box, not weird drivers to install with all their bloatware.

Try to do it manually is hard, but there are some great pretuned distros that make it easy.

Oh yeah you're right there, but what I'm getting at is having a system that does everything you want is, I would assume, preferred. I run Pop and have it setup with my Audient EVO and it works well with Reaper, but getting it to that point was a pain.
