Nice! I'm not a composer, but I just started playing with LMMS the other week and thought it was cool and intuitive—even encouraged me to finally pull the trigger on that Kurzweil keyboard with midi support I've been eyeing for some time! I bookmarked this and will take a look at OpenMPT and Furnace too.
Open source FTW ✊
Latest release is 2020 it says on the GitHub page, is that incorrect information? I started using LMMS in 2022 but I recall ditching it because I thought it was a dead project..
Yeah I asked about that on the LMMS Discord too, and said I had the same assumption. Apparently it is still under active dev, but you need to scroll down to the nightly builds.
I don't know why they don't update the Git Releases..
Lol ok. I paid money to ableton when I could have just donated instead. Thank you so much for the follow-up!
Silver-lining: Ableton is very good and teaches a lot! Also, in case you ended up getting into Max4Live at all, it's worth checking out PlugData
