bitwig on linux

my brother works for MS, all I have to do is put my on the table and the mood changes.

I heard she picks up things that BG drops so he doesn't waste money picking it up, according to the rule that his time is that valuable.

In a B boy stance of course.

she moon walks to the copy machine

We'll meet at Fridas for happy hour. I'll get her a shot of Knob Creek and a Blue Moon (does she want the orange slice with it?) and what does she want for appetizers?

I don't mean Friday's but the little boutique pub owned by Frida (not unibrow Frida) only meta-assistants know about.

"shit, if it's gonna be that kind of party I'm gonna stick my dick in the mashed potatoes!"

gotta have the orange slice with the Blue Moon. then again, it's brewed by Coors, which got me over that stuff pretty fast. it's a pretty good beer but I just can't support that kind of bullshit.

[regretfullySaid]

I ain't drinkin it; a lot of them like it. Or a 312 but that's kind of a generic pick. Meta-assistants are not generic.

It's really hard to assume which Dogfish they want and what Dogfish Frida has.

LOL! this may be true for you but it is certainly not true for everyone. many people know how to use linux quite well and without any of the problems (?) that you mention.

I started using linux in 98 or so and have been(for the most part still am) linux/unix admin for quite some time now.
But I prefer OSX as my personal os, as do many of my colleagues and firends in the same field.

why?

[Grappadura]

what I mean, what are the kind of tecnical challenges I will have to face?

...

But OSX works 1/5 speed of windows7's in music production. We don't take computer as toy. We seem to look it more seriously than you and Fruit computer, Apple.
....

fast... at what? Does that factor in the many hours I've wasted trying to get drivers to work on windows?

@Grappadura Why not dual-boot windows7 and Ubuntu ?? Its dead simple lets say you have a 150 gb hd with W7 install , In windows 7 you shrink the w7 partition down not more than 51% . Heres an example 100gb for windows7 and 50gb left for ubuntu to install . OR(w7 76g and ubuntu 74gb whatever !)There is walk thru on the web on how to do this ( google it !! ) . You can also download vst plugins , samples , photos etc etc . while running ubuntu , and drag the files over to your windows c./ drive , so you can keep your windows7 install , almost or kinda off the net .

why?

I'm a right tool for the job kind of guy. When I get home, I just want to have a pint
and let the "OS" do its job, without it getting in my way.
OSX just works better for me in this respect.
And I still have all my cli tools I use every day.
Live(obviously) and other stuff I use is not available for linux.
I like my software to have sane defaults and not have to twiggle through gazillion options, just to make it usable.
I like my gui designed, well, by actual U/X designers, not some fucktard, whose idea of usability is
black text on dark brown background. I don't want to spend time unifying my desktop across gui toolkits.
And I'm not fond of the general direction mainstream gui has been heading for the past few years.

Normally, I avoid *buntu, when I can, but I've decided to take ubuntu studio 12.04 beta1 for a spin last weekend.
Touchpad on my laptop doesn't work. How can anyone fuck this up is beyond me.

I haven't used linux for audio production, but you'd want a -rt kernel for audio stuff,
and AFAIK, proprietary gfx drivers have some issues with that.
Oh, and linux audio subsystem always has been, and still is a bloody mess.

[Cool Character]

I´ll get what you mac users get for half the price.

thoughts?

Windows user here.

I don't think you'll get VSTs. I mean AUs. I mean either. Enjoy your native effects.

Similar story for myself,
I jump between OSX, Linux and Windows7 all day (Software developer).

Linux is great on the server, and for some development tasks. but in general OSX trumps it in every way imaginable. I actually find it kind of funny how OSX is a better UNIX than Linux will ever be.
