Abstract
Computer Music Journal, 27:4, pp. 27–42, Winter 2003 2003 Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The purpose of this article is to introduce readers to Linux and to describe the factors that make this operating system attractive to computer musicians. I have divided this exposition into two main parts. The first describes and assesses Linux as a general platform for computing. The second, longer section focuses on Linux’s audio and music capabilities. In that section, a historical overview precedes a necessarily brief account of the Linux audio software base, followed by a prediction for the near future of Linux audio development and the acceptance of Linux for music applications.
