Linux has a terrible audio subsystem. First you'd have to write CoreAudio for Linux, which would not be easy.
- dyzone 1mo agoBitwig works on linux. I just installed and ran it. Zero issues. Bitwig team has just 30 people.
- 999900000999 1mo agoLinux audio is great when it works. In my experience a good chunk of the time either Linux audio or Bluetooth is completely bonked out of the box
- bwindels 1mo agoIf you're referring to pulseaudio or alsa, more recently pipewire should have improved the situation a lot.
- boudin 1mo agoWhat's terrible? It just work out of the box.
- el_memorioso 1mo agoI use Ardour on Linux when I have to and what is terrible is that to get acceptable latency and jitter I have to use the sound system at the ALSA level. This kills sound for any other app I happen to be running. Pipewire introduces too much latency for recording good live performances and getting jackd to run properly with Ardour is something I haven't had success with yet, though to be fair I want to record music and not futz around with some baroque sound system. Half the time after quitting Ardour I have to restart pipewire/wireplumber et al to get sound working properly again. In contrast, on MacOS I plug in my USB sound interface, it appears in my DAW and I'm on my way. And yes, I am getting a Mac now.
- dadoum 1mo agoI hope coreaudio isn't the bar to clear, as in my experience it is a disaster, I've never seen audio work that bad on any Linux laptop I own.
