From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Looking for a good, studio quality microphone that just works on Linux. Also wondering what software or hardware people are using for enhancing your voice.

I'm just curious, what type of issues are you running into with it? I purchased one a short time ago for recording guitar practice sessions for future reference. I haven't used it an enormous amount yet, and I'd like to prepare myself if there's use cases that don't work on Linux.

I'm running Ubuntu Studio, and using a microphone or DI depending on the situation.

The biggest thing was sometimes all output coming out as a distorted clipping mess, with nothing fixing it but a reboot. It was random and I can't tell why it happens. Other than that it's a lot of more minor stuff like the configuration software being Windows exclusive.
