Is there software like Logic Pro for Mac available for Ubuntu?

Most avid hobbyist musicians out there have likely heard of, or used, Logic Pro for Mac. This is one of many industry standard application for music creation; in fact it is even required by some college music programs. So you may be wondering, Is there anything like this for Ubuntu?

Well, yes, and a huge, resounding No! There are various Linux applications for music production but, nothing comes close to matching Logic Pro.

Static background noise: Ubuntu 13.04, Kubuntu 13.04; Intel-HDA & ALSA sound driver

A recent update to the pulseaudio package included with Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) and Kubuntu 13.04 may be causing some users to experience a persistent background noise, or hum. It appears that this particular bug will affect VLC, Skype, and possibly other applications which emit audio. This problem is primarily affecting Intel-HDA (high definition audio) chipsets and ALSA sound drivers in regards to "glitch-free" PA (pulse audio).

Below is the current suggested workaround. It requires you to modify a line in the default pulse audio configuration file.

1. Modify the following line in /etc/pulse/default.pa:                                                                                

   

   (Start a session of Terminal and use gedit to edit the pulse audio file.)

      
2. In line 53 of /etc/pulse/default.pa change use_ucm=0 to tsched=0 

     

(The line to edit is line 53)

3. Save Edits and Close the default.pa file.
