Alright, I have a new laptop for reasons and am going to venture into the world of #Bitwig under Linux.

If any of you out there see this and want to tell me something, please do. :D

In the late 1900s I mucked about in UNIXes when I was on the helpdesk for a university. I made shell scripts and understood jokes about vi vs. emacs. I haven't really touched Linux this century, and I am well aware things have moved on a lot.

I'm looking at Manjaro, btw.

Who's making music on #Linux? Is it realistic to replace a #MacBook with a Linux machine in a recording studio? Does it play nice with external devices? I've had some experience with #Ubuntu, I'm aware that it's not as user friendly but it seemed to work well "in the box", at least. Thoughts? #linuxmusic #linuxmusicproduction #linuxmusicians #MusicProduction appleinsider.com/articles/25/0

I need help from the #musicproducing bubble.

I'm using an old PC running #LinuxMint ( #xfce ) for #producing and #recording.
Main software is #LMMS and #Audacity.

I'd like to use a #MIDIkeyboard, best with some #Pads (like an #Akai #MPC) for playing #Samples for beats. But I'd like to use it in Linux.

Everytime I'm searching for information online it takes 2-4 minutes till: 🤯 My head explode.
The instructions for me, always seems kind of like this:
"Connecting the JACK-ALSA-Pod-Cable-Hypendum with the controller. Then Set your DAW-software via Wine up and in the last step just persuade Bill Gates, that he's sporting a fluffy moustache, wich is strokeable." ARRGH.

Please, I'm not a huge Linux-brain. Nor intend I to become one. I just wanna make music! And this without use unfree software.

Is there – at best – a plug-and-play solution for my MIDI-Keyboard wish?
Thank you in advance!
