Kokkini Zita: The Audio Software Of Fons Adriaensen
,----[ Quote ]
| Looking at the software listed at Kokkini Zita it's easy to see where
| developer Fons Adriaensen's interests lie. He has written one of the best
| organ synthesizers for Linux, he has contributed to the LADSPA collection of
| processing plugins, and he has provided Linux sound researchers with some
| excellent tools for measuring and representing audio signals. He is also
| involved in improving Linux support for the Ambisonics technology of encoding
| and decoding multichannel audio.

Renoise For Linux
,----[ Quote
| On January 17 of this year the first beta release of Renoise 1.9.1 was
| announced. Along with new features and fixes for its Windows and OSX
| versions, this release includes the first version of Renoise for Linux. This
| is rather significant news: Renoise is a popular program, with an active
| community of developers and users in the Win/Mac music worlds, and a native
| Linux release has been a community priority. The wait is over, so let's see
| (and hear) what Renoise brings to the Linux audio software party.

Commercial Sound And Music Software For Linux, Part 2
,----[ Quote ]
| I hope this article has been enlightening with regards to the presence of
| commercially available sound and music software for Linux. Speaking
| personally, I'd love it if these programs were all free and open-source, but
| such decisions are best left to the programmers themselves. As mentioned,
| many of these programmers already contribute to the FOSS community.
