Looking for a good, studio quality microphone that just works on Linux. Also wondering what software or hardware people are using for enhancing your voice.

      I’m just curious, what type of issues are you running into with it? I purchased one a short time ago for recording guitar practice sessions for future reference. I haven’t used it an enormous amount yet, and I’d like to prepare myself if there’s use cases that don’t work on Linux.

      I’m running Ubuntu Studio, and using a microphone or DI depending on the situation.

        The biggest thing was sometimes all output coming out as a distorted clipping mess, with nothing fixing it but a reboot. It was random and I can’t tell why it happens. Other than that it’s a lot of more minor stuff like the configuration software being Windows exclusive.

          Okay, thanks for the reply! I’m not using it in a production environment by any means, so hopefully I can work around any issues if they crop up.

      What problem are you having? Ive been using the 2nd gen for years, and didn’t notice any problems, except more xruns than I think ought to happen. But it’s hard to know what to blame for xruns.

        AFAIK the problems are exclusive to the 3rd gen line.
