Whats your point? That Linux hasn't yet taken over the audio world?
Well, my point is: its happening, even if its not being done with whitepaper sniffers and marketing people involved.
There are far more audio hardware manufacturers using Linux in their products than ever before. There are also far more pro-level audio applications being developed for Linux, than ever before. It is a rapidly expanding market for Linux, and it has the potential to seriously undermine the current leaders with disruption. Once the pro-audio world catches wind of what can be done with Linux Audio, packaged in a nice box (a la Zynthian), I'll wager that within a year this situation of Linux-as-underdog in the audio world will be very, very different.
Its already happening in studios around me - I see people freaking out over the M1 move and Apple lockdown, looking for alternatives. UbuntuStudio is a godsend for those in that situation ..
EDIT: notice that I linked to the CLOSED issues for Zynthian, and that a majority of those are from 3rd-party developers getting their synths and effects products packaged for Zynthian. This represents a sea change - not to mention the fact that this work from the Linux Audio world is rapidly propagating great value to the M1 (Apple ARM) situation ..
That is the whole point of baseless statements like "Linux is the platform of choice for audio and acoustic research and was chosen by the CCRMA (Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics).", without any numbers to prove them.
I can be gladly proven wrong, assuming you have numbers to share, otherwise we are talking about "Year of Linux Audio".
