Waveform vs Non DAW

Runs great on Linux(except LV2 Support).

Older releases are available for free when new versions come out.

Runs on SBC (single board computer) systems like the Raspberry Pi3, Pine64, and ODroid development boards, as well as systems like the Pinebook and Chromebooks with ARM based SoC CPU's that have been reformatted with a Linux OS.

Very logically structured.

Has a Chord Track, MIDI pattern creator and great included tools.

Self-explaining interface.

Non comes in 4 different modules that can be connected with JACK

Each module is very streamlined and light on system resources, even when they are used altogether. So it is much better than Ardour for systems that are limited in memory or processing power.

You use what you need, when you need it. Need to record? Pull up the timeline. Need to edit, mix or master? Add the mixer. Doing anything with midi? Add the sequencer in. Or just use the sequencer alone if you are primarily an eMusician using VI's.

Want to instantly save and recall full sessions, including outboard apps? Use the session manager.

Ignore what you don't need rather than having to clear the clutter.
