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're choosing to do audio production in Linux, the odds are that "easy" wasn't your top decision criteria. lol

Personally, I recently hooked up my Berhinger USB audio interface to Mint, and Ardour and Audacity saw it immediately. I was impressed. I was ready to google around for how to use lusb and dmseg and shit because I never remember what I'm doing.
