Currently looking for a good DAW to run on Linux. I used Ableton Live 11 Standard back on Windows, got it running decently on Fedora with Wine, but kind of want to explore some other options.

Before I used Live, LMMS was actually what I used first while I was learning. I never did anything too real with it so I’m not honestly too sure what it’s capable of, but it also seems to be abandonware? Hasn’t been updated since 2020, what’s that about?

I’m not 100% dead set on using FOSS btw, for this anyways. It would definitely be a plus, but i’ll use proprietary if it runs well on Linux and is good at what it does. Are there any other options I should check out or look into? I’ve heard pretty good things about ardour and bitwig but don’t know too much about them.

    I dual boot Windows for Cubase and Kontakt. Never could get Cubase working well on Linux and I probably could switch to Reaper and make Kontakt work with yabridge, but I have been using Cubase for over 20 years and haven’t had the inclination to switch just yet.
