    I have used LMMS for quite a bit. It’s fairly stable, and I really like the UI and the general experience, plus, it comes with basic samples and plugins with presets, which is nice.

    The biggest drawback in my opinion at the moment is the lack of native support for lv2 and vst3 plugins, which limits the access to some usefull plugins like Surge. That and the lack of a record audio tool.

    I tried Ardour which is much more complete. It’s alright, but i’m not a fan of the user experience and it is far more complex.

    ZRythm is very promising, but is not really stable right now.

    So yeah, LMMS is defintely a good FOSS option and a good DAW despite the lack of some features in my opinion


  • Thank you for your answer !

    I was looking at pop os, and apparently KDE can be installed the way you suggested, however that might create some instabilities, that’s why I slightly prefer distributions that have KDE by default.

    I guess i’ll stick to Manjaro then. It’s probably not perfect, but I like it.

    Thanks for the advice on the partition. If i’m correct, I won’t have to modify anything besides sda4 and sdb3, so I guess I should be fine
