Several years ago I worked with Cubase, but since I left the closed source for what it is I never found a good replacement in the Free and Open world. I recently had another look at Ardour and found that it now matured enough and even managed to do a few basic things without having to do complicated things with the audio settings.
Now there is also Midi and from the looks of it, soft synths and effects.
Is there anyone on steem working with Ardour?
