    Probably not sound engineers or music artists either, given the continued, multi-decade joke of real-time sound on linux.

    Indeed, I use Linux for most tasks, I use the Linux box I'm typing this on to play music, but my DAW machines on the same KVM switch are all Windows boxes, the main workhorse still runs XP (If it ain't broke...), and I might be forced into adding a Mac into this mix as well if a project goes ahead.

    You will probably not laugh when I'm telling you that I use JACKD for multi-platform, realtime, networked sound between Windows and Linux. JACK does a lot of things right and should have been adopted as default by some distros to give it the exposure it deserves, but instead it went under below the half-baked solutions KDE and GNOME kept pushing.

      In large part because JACK was seen as complicated and cumbersome, while PA was seen as "automagical" and could offer that pr app volume slider that Windows had introduced recently...
