I’m a professional instrumentalist and I’ve begun tinkering with digital audio production , hoping to start a side career composing digital music.

I’ve been working with Linux in general for over 15 years, and I’d like to stick with it, but I’m wondering if its actually viable in the professional world. It seems like most professionals are working with Ableton or other commercial software. I’m learning and working with Ardour, which seems great, but I wonder if I shouldn’t be investing my time in software that will be more useful longterm.

Anyone here have thoughts/experience with this?

    Middleware basically is a software that bridges your audio editing with game engines. Fmod is one example. I suppose if I’m just a lone composer and not part of an audio team it won’t matter how I create my source material.
