We'll be covering some of the audio software applications available on the Gnu/Linux operating system. The workshop will explore a variety of different tools, from drum machines to mixing and multitrack recording applications including;
Hydrogen - Pattern-based drum machine and sampler with a simple user interface that is ideal for programming and arranging rhythm tracks.
