Oh, me? Just reinstalling my operating system because my DJ software (Mixxx) stopped working under Fedora 42 and I have a DJ gig in THREE DAYS 🫠

I swear to god I'm gonna become one of those people that push off software updates for years 🗿

If any #Mixxx people are reading this, specifically the rubberband V3 engine was no longer available under Fedora 42 when running the native package. When running the flatpak, rubberband V3 was available but I could not get my DJ controller to work even though it was detected properly and the app had permission to access USB devices. Rubberband V3 is the only one good enough to use for recording or performing.

@ai6yr Hydrogen rules! It takes midi-in as well and you can make your own samples.

Other mature #Linux #musicproduction projects:

#Ardour is a complete DAW. Interface is a B- tops, but it has all the power.

#Guitarix is an effects/"amp-sim" package. Fun for practicing, or making a toy keyboard roar

#Mixxx is live DJ software, busy gui but works great

#PureData is a do-anything toolkit. At its most basic, it can turn ANY number change into a midi message...
