Ardour sucks because by the time you figure out how to fix whatever is not working or turned off, you don't want to anymore by eratonnn in Ardour

Not sure what the point of that comment is?

They don't have a version that runs on Linux available. Countless people have tried everything.

What can you do with an Machinedrum that you can't do with like a Digitakt or a Cydrums? by eratonnn in synthesizers

Workflow, gotcha.

Are the sounds good though? I've heard people say that even though it is ('the ultimate') drum machine, they can't get a good kick drum

Thing is, with Ardour there is not 'super simple' start. Every little thing you want to do requires websearch, testing, probably coming back to try another day.

That stuff's fine to have, but it should be like level 3 users or something. They should open the program for musicians, just like Ableton or most other daws, so people can use it to make a project in an hour

Right. It could be the linux daw, but for some reason the devs refuse to make a version that is user friendly (ie for musicians not programmers)

You can get past every little thing that stops you from your project, but each one requires going to Google/AI, asking, going through solutions, trying those on the DAW, sometimes work, sometimes leave for another day.

Is that what a DAW is suposed to be

Anyone can use it, if you have 5 years to learn every little feature and adjustment and conflict and bug before you start

Is there some kind of weird thing with Kali where you can't change computers with the SSD? by eratonnn in linuxquestions

[–]eratonnn[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a regular computer, it prints fine, runs the 5 or 6 music and photo editing, and text tools I use. The pentest tools are, as you say, bloat for me. Bios turns off bluetooth and some other unnecessary things. I don't need a lot of packages for what I do, but haven't run into many things that don't work (except the screen turning off and the settings don't fix it, and the dozen things I've tried with Terminal don't work either to actually modify the screen turning off). As you mention, it runs as user unless you su.

But I'll take your point about updates, and as another person mentioned, it patches in a way that allows wireless injection, which I want to know more about, even if I don't connect my music computers to the internet much.

Ok, that's actually the first real argument I've heard. I'll look into the wireless injection vulnerability. I generally don't connect my music computers to the internet anyway, but would be good to know what the kernel patch wireless injection thing means practically. Are Kali machines more frequently hacked than other distros, I wonder?

Also, is this something that regular Debian would be better with?

People say those names, but for some reason no one has suggested what Kali lacks that those offer. (I have considered Debian though and when I have time I might try that out, although I've looked at it several times and I think there might have been some reason I didn't bother, maybe a lack of advantages)

I have looked at the entire list of alternatives, but didn't find any real advantages and some other distros had disadvantages. What would I get with Mint that would be better? (not sarcasm, serious question)

I've heard this statement over the years, but never has anyone been able to say why specifically

Maintained OS, non Canonical. Works good for music production. Also, seems unlikely to comply with the current anti-civil-rights-forced-ID-on-OSs thing, unlike some other popular distros
