Focusrite Extends Help to Linux Developer to Enable Driver Support
|
||||
======
|
||||
Focusrite's wonderful gesture towards supporting Linux.
|
||||
Even though Linux as a desktop platform is evolving fast, it is still a choice for few music producers compared to Windows and macOS. A major reason being the lack of official support from several DAWs and hardware manufacturers.
|
||||
|
||||
Fortunately, all of that is changing, with big names getting involved with Linux. Curious? Well, recently, [PreSonus announced Linux support][1] for its Studio One DAW.
|
||||
|
||||
And, now, [Focusrite][2], one of the direct competitors of [PreSonus][3] has joined in 🤩They also manufacture audio interfaces and other professional audio equipment.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are a music producer or an enthusiast, you should know that these names often go as synonymous with each other. While I currently use PreSonus over Focusrite, both the companies and their products are a big deal for the mass market.

### Focusrite's Pledge to Linux Support
|
||||
|
||||
**Geoffrey Bennett** is a user on the [LinuxMusicians][5] forums, known for his work to bring Linux support to popular Focusrite audio interfaces (Scarlett 2nd and 3rd gen).
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, it is a massive undertaking, unofficially.
|
||||
|
||||
To take that up a notch, he recently launched a fundraiser to get the latest audio interface by Focusrite, i.e., [Scarlett 4th gen][6].
|
||||
|
||||
Along with that, he had goals to work on podcast equipment by Focusrite.
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
While the fundraiser was a success, **it also got attention from Focusrite** , and **they contributed a significant amount** to help him get the latest audio interface.
|
||||
|
||||
**Focusrite also offered to send him any devices he does not have and future products before release.**
|
||||
|
||||
To add cherry on top, they mentioned how their **engineering team can help him improve the development work**.
|
||||
|
||||
> While I had previously struggled to connect with the engineers or management at Focusrite, news of the overwhelming response to this fundraiser reached the top tiers there. Given the niche nature of Linux audio, I had kept my expectations in check, but this was beyond what I had imagined.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> I just got off a call with them where, beyond providing the hardware, they were inquiring about other ways they could support the development.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Focusrite not only offered to send me any devices I didn't have in my collection but also proposed that for any future product releases, they will do their utmost to send me devices in advance. This means that Linux support could be ready right from the product launch!
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Furthermore, they are discussing how their engineering team could better help me to streamline the development process, and eliminate much of the guesswork.
|
||||
>
|
||||
> \- Geoffrey via [LinuxMusicians][8]
|
||||
|
||||
So, Focusrite wants to ensure that the Linux community gets to use their products with an improved experience. In other words, indirectly providing official support to the Linux platform.
|
||||
|
||||
And, this is big news!
|
||||
|
||||
These two big audio manufacturers **should persuade other software and hardware companies as well**. Whether it is in the form of official support for drivers, troubleshooting support for their customers, anything works.
|
||||
|
||||
Any kind of attention to the Linux platform will help improve the Linux audio ecosystem.
|
||||
|
||||
Audio professionals do not have to get locked in the proprietary platforms or pay for a license to get an operating system if more audio companies add Linux support.
|
||||
|
||||
_💬 I would be hopeful for that future! What do you think?_

Focusrite 帮助 Linux 开发人员启用驱动程序支持
|
||||
======
|
||||
Focusrite 在对 Linux 大力支持。
|
||||
尽管 Linux 作为桌面平台正在快速发展，但与 Windows 和 macOS 相比，它仍然是少数音乐制作人的选择。一个主要原因是缺乏一些 DAW 和硬件制造商的官方支持。
|
||||
|
||||
幸运的是，随着大牌企业涉足 Linux，这一切都在改变。好奇么？ 嗯，最近，[PreSonus 宣布其 Studio One DAW 支持 Linux][1]。
|
||||
|
||||
现在，[PreSonus][3]的直接竞争对手之一 [Focusrite][2] 也加入了🤩他们还生产音频接口和其他专业音频设备。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你是音乐制作人或音乐爱好者，你应该知道这些名字通常互为同义词。虽然我目前使用 PreSonus 而不是 Focusrite，但这两家公司及其产品对于大众市场来说都很重要。
|
||||
|
||||
### Focusrite 对 Linux 支持的承诺
|
||||
|
||||
**Geoffrey Bennett** 是 [LinuxMusicians][5] 论坛的用户，以将 Linux 支持引入流行的 Focusrite 音频接口（Scarlett 第二代和第三代）而闻名。
|
||||
|
||||
当然，这是一项艰巨的非正式任务。
|
||||
|
||||
为了更进一步，他最近发起了一项筹款活动，以获得 Focusrite 的最新音频接口，即 [Scarlett 第四代][6]。
|
||||
|
||||
除此之外，他的目标是开发 Focusrite 的播客设备。
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
筹款活动取得成功的同时，**也得到了 Focusrite 的关注**，**他们贡献了大量资金**来帮助他获得最新的音频接口。
|
||||
|
||||
**Focusrite 还提出在发布前向他发送他没有的任何设备以及未来的产品。**
|
||||
|
||||
最重要的是，他们提到了他们的**工程团队如何帮助他改进开发工作**。
|
||||
|
||||
> 虽然我之前一直很难与 Focusrite 的工程师或管理层取得联系，但这次筹款活动获得热烈反响的消息传到了那里的高层。考虑到 Linux 音频的小众性质，我一直控制着自己的期望，但这超出了我的想象。
|
||||
>
|
||||
> 我刚刚与他们通了电话，除了提供硬件之外，他们还询问支持开发的其他方式。
|
||||
>
|
||||
> Focusrite 不仅愿意向我发送我收藏中没有的任何设备，而且还提议，对于未来的任何产品发布，他们将尽最大努力提前向我发送设备。这意味着 Linux 支持可以从产品发布之日起就做好准备！
|
||||
>
|
||||
> 此外，他们正在讨论他们的工程团队如何更好地帮助我简化开发流程，并消除大部分猜测。
|
||||
>
|
||||
> \- Geoffrey 来自 [LinuxMusicians][8]
|
||||
|
||||
因此，Focusrite 希望确保 Linux 社区能够以更好的体验使用他们的产品。也就是说，间接为 Linux 平台提供官方支持。
|
||||
|
||||
这是个大新闻！
|
||||
|
||||
这两家大型音频制造商**也应该说服其他软件和硬件公司**。无论是对驱动程序的官方支持，还是对客户的故障排除支持，任何方式都是可行的。
|
||||
|
||||
对 Linux 平台的任何关注都将有助于改善 Linux 音频生态系统。
|
||||
|
||||
如果更多的音频公司添加了 Linux 支持，音频专业人士就不必被锁定在专有平台上，也不必支付许可证费用来获得操作系统。
|
||||
|
||||
_💬我对那个未来充满希望！ 你怎么认为？_
