The last piece of software that was keeping me on MacOS for $dayGig now has a pretty solid browser app, which means that just maybe 2025 will be year of the linux desktop for me.
Experience the revolution of portable computing with the 12.5-inch StarLite Mk V. Effortlessly transition between a traditional laptop and a convenient tablet with its flexible 2-1 design; the perfect solution for work, entertainment and everything i…
Yeah, android tablets don’t even do the courtesy of sucking goats. I might consider a linux tab if a good one was around, but for the past couple of years the iPad has been my music studio, so I’m kinda committed.
Oh man, way too much. I buy almost everything as it gets released. But I do have tendencies.
I mostly use AUM as the main platform. It suits my usual “get a buttload of sequencers running” method. For the sequencing I love MidiDreams, because it’s very familiar to my old modular sensibilities. I’ve started using Nodes more, though, as it does help keep all the different track controls more compact, and make it easier to launch scenes. I also go back to Atom 2 a lot, to lay out more "composed" pieces. Neon is seeing more use. Prism, which came out very recently, is interesting, but the Digitakt workflow from which it derives has always driven me crazy.
I often start with the TAL Juno synth just to get basics going. Trooper a lot for bass. Drums are all over the place, but I mostly use Octachron to drive them. As the sound branches out I often go for Bleass Megalit for the big unison sounds, Korg Electribe Wave for brittle little wavetables, Nambu for FM. Most-used effects are Bleass Delay or Audio Damage's Other Desert Cities, Eventide Blackhole, sometimes a shimmer. But it goes all over the place... the Moog modular emulation, miRack, Decent Sampler, Koala, any of a host of oddments. I should use Drambo more than I do.
Recently I spent a week building a Turing Machine in miRack from components. I'd like to make use of Audulus, but aaaagggh.
I also do a lot of pseudo-rock, so I'm constantly fooling around with guitar samples, amps, and performance methods. I just got GigFast and am enjoying the results of Neural Amp Modeling.
As things get complicated, I get into control surfaces. I've done a lot with Mozaic, even writing up my own scripts, and I've built setups in Surface Builder and Loopy Pro. I wish to hell that TouchOsc ran as an AUV3, but they seem to be steadfastly against the idea. I sometimes connect an external controller like the Midifighter Twister.
Finally... I do use Logic Pro. Not much, and I kind of hate it. But for making actual *songs*, it's kinda the way to go.
@rhosyn damn I actually haven’t even heard of 2/3 of that. I’m mostly just using the iPad and recording out into a computer. I don’t remember the names of anything tho I’ll have to check lol

in reply to G (Nap God) • • •Is there a recommended #Linux tablet and/or touchscreen laptop? Not sure Pinetab is there yet but if it is, I welcome that as an answer.
I just really love my iPad and would prefer Linux but I will stick w/ iPad if there’s no decent alternative.
Android tablets do not count!
