Is it just not high in the priority list?

Linux is so full-featured at this point and music is such a huge part of culture that I'm always surprised when asked to find that there's no music-making software available.

Or have I just not found the Linux equivalent yet that everybody else knows about?

Cool, never heard of it.

Whoa okay yea that looks very interesting. Thanks!

Is the license one time or an ongoing subscription? it's not free, right?

It is pay, one time only. I think they have a 30 day trial or something like that with a few tiers to choose from to buy
