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.

I like Reaper and LMMS personally but more competition is always good.

Is LMMS really functional? I thought only Ardour could be used for serious audio production on the FOSS world.

Of course there's still Reaper and Bitwig, but those are not FOSS.

Also Renoise (also not FOSS,. but good)

I mean it's not the most powerful DAW out there but it was fine for what I was doing.
