#LinuxMint and #LinuxMusicProduction friends. I have a quandary. I like using Google Drive to store some of my shared data on, but this aspect of my workflow is not going well. Un-mounting my Google Drive causes my PC to be fast and lovely.

I tried using the network accounts to see my Google Drive, and this does work, but with #Blender I am shown the machine names for everything and none of my folder names are displayed correctly in Blender. Everywhere it is fine.

#rClone, or the way I have it set up on my PC is awful (I'm using free access because I can't afford a paid Google auth key for this). It causes applications to launch slowly. It causes Nemo to think it has crashed while Google Drive links take *forever* to update. And yet Blender can see this and it allows me to access (after an interminable wait) my project data.

Frustrated in New Zealand.

Solved: don’t use clone to Google Drive as I had been trying. Will detail in a reply.

Today, as a small treat to myself, I have had yet another go at trying to get parallel installations of #BitwigStudio onto my #LinuxMint test installation.

I am expecting to eventually rebuild it all from scratch and hopefully have scripts to facilitate this. At first blush I have successfully installed and launched versions 4.0, 5.3.13, and 6.0b4 side by side.

This is a significant step towards my Linux independance as I really want to be able to move between versions for preset development and maintenance.

Was it difficult? Like so many things it is vastly easier when you know how to do it.

Here are my notes to self in case you want to read them too: https://www.ambientspace.com/technical-notes/bitwig-notes/multiple-versions-on-linux

Alright, I have a new laptop for reasons and am going to venture into the world of #Bitwig under Linux.

If any of you out there see this and want to tell me something, please do. :D

In the late 1900s I mucked about in UNIXes when I was on the helpdesk for a university. I made shell scripts and understood jokes about vi vs. emacs. I haven't really touched Linux this century, and I am well aware things have moved on a lot.

I'm looking at Manjaro, btw.

Who's making music on #Linux? Is it realistic to replace a #MacBook with a Linux machine in a recording studio? Does it play nice with external devices? I've had some experience with #Ubuntu, I'm aware that it's not as user friendly but it seemed to work well "in the box", at least. Thoughts? #linuxmusic #linuxmusicproduction #linuxmusicians #MusicProduction https://appleinsider.com/articles/25/01/03/apple-ceo-tim-cook-personally-invested-1-million-in-trumps-inauguration

Schon mal darüber nachgedacht, auf Linux 🐧 umzusteigen? - Ich arbeite derzeit mit einer Gruppe von Linux-Musikern an einer Online-Plattform zur Verbesserung des Linux-Musikproduktions-Universums.

Um mehr über die (potenziellen) Nutzer zu erfahren, haben wir eine kurze Umfrage erstellt. Dauert nur 2 Minuten, versprochen!
