  • En l’occurrence je parlais du bénévolat dans le sens : travail non rémunéré en général, pas dans le sens strict.

    Dans tous les cas tu a l’air de penser qu’il y a des intermittents payer a rien foutre. Dans ce cas la soit effectivement c’est pôle emploi qui évalue mal les cachets soit le fisc qui contrôle mal l’activité au moment de la déclaration d’impôt.

    Si ton problème c’est un problème de tiroir budgétaire OK je comprend. Si on transforme le statut en sub, on ajoute encore de la précarité a un statut déjà précaire. Sans parler de la tonne de ressources nécessaires pour traiter toutes les demandes a posteriori…

    Fruity Loops doesn’t have any easy equivalent on Linux. I’d say try reaper and ardour as they provide windows binaries. Be careful LMMS isn’t a FL clone, it’s midi only.

    For the Arturia plugins you can install them with wine and use yabridge to make them compatible if they are not in vst compatible format (ardour can take vst2 and vst3 but sometimes it will not work). You can also have a dedicated PC for instruments (it is what I do) on windows (using audio gridder). Gotta test the Linux server version of audio gridder to see if I can go back to linux on m’y second PC. Or you can just send the midi notes to pc2 then get the audio out to pc1.

    It’s doable to make proprietary plugins run on Linux but the reliability is the nightmarish part, as an update can break the wine compatibility and it can take a few mins/hours to restore.

    It’s a real issue because, technical aspect aside, lots of instruments cost a lot of money and are necessary to keep up with the trend. Also theses plugins can save you a lot of time, meaning you can provide more music on short time (effect plugins are concern as well here).


  • Name, address, GPS localisation data, habits (like apps you often use, moments you use one device or another), gender, search terms in search engines, open web pages on a web browser, connection (other person you know), the work you do and where you work.

    All kinds of things, really.

    The usage is mostly advertising or identity theft.

    As a professional music composer myself and working on Linux with Ardour, I’d say it is overall pretty good since many years. If you don’t like midi in Ardour you can use another soft to runs midi notes. On Linux the good thing is that if you don’t like something you can change, specially with audio softwares.

    To me the two major issues with professional music on Linux are :

    • Proprietary plugins for virtual instruments are a nightmare (hard to make them to work, expensive on machine’s resources and unreliable),

    • Most company still think free software = unprofessional/amateur, which can make it harder to get jobs.
