Why can't someone make some good audio stuff for Linux??? At least I know Linux
works for me everyday and never goes down.
There has never been a bigger scam than Windows.
This is a recurring dream I have:

Re: Upgrade to Cubase VST for Linux for free!!
But they have suspended all their Linux development for the foreseeable future
