[Caveat: unfortunately I've used Vorbis audio codec for this video and in Firefox browser I can't hear sound (computer and mobile) - so please use Chromium, Chrome, other browser or LBRY Desktop Application or LBRY Android app from Google Play. Sorry about that.] Sonic Pi is a great piece of open source software which can produce wide range of music styles. There are Jazz, Classical, Grime and other modern styles available. With brilliant tutorial inside the program you can start making music in literally seconds. I've installed it on MX Linux using tool MX Package Installer (Stable Repo tab, package 'sonic-pi'). But you will find it also as a .deb file, which can be used in Debian and Debian based distributions. --- GITHUB link for the project: https://github.com/samaaron/sonic-pi In your Linux system must be installed package 'qjackctl' as well. In MX Linux you can find it also in MX Package Installer, Stable Repo tab. What you need to run Sonic Pi on computer with Linux is that little Bash script, link below: https://open.lbry.com/@Dude:7/sonic-pi-script-for-linux:c Just download it on your computer (or copy content to any text editor and save as eg. spi.sh), give it a permission to run (in your file manager or in terminal with: $ chmod +x spi.sh) and then run it. Just like on the video here. Have fun with Sonic Pi, I wish you great pleasure from creating your own music! Dude
