A linux OS is a daw, and then there are daw apps and pluginstrimph1 wrote:When you need to be able to do something with a DAW and you need a supplement to be able to work.

I choose separate input devices best suited for keyboards,
guitars and vocals. So I have a few real cables to deal with,
and then sometimes different preferred daw apps,
standalone apps, and plugins, each best suited

You seem to be hung up on supplements.
Normal life, and standard studio routines,
are not some kind of evil. Don't you supplement your feet
every day with shoes and socks? Does it bother you that running barefoot is not very efficient, compared to running when wearing
sweat socks, and a pair of shoes from Adidas?
Are you furious that it takes time to find your socks,
and lace up the shoes, let alone washing and drying the laundry?
Do you then supplement the wash water with soap?
Do you supplement the evaporation of water from the laundry,
with a heated drying machine? Supplements don't suck.
We work to be able to get them.
