Absolutely. The sound quality was excellent - so clear, everything cut
through perfectly. It sounded a lot better than tons of shows I've seen
run on Windows/MacOS, so clearly operating system isn't the limiting
factor here :)

If anyone says that linux doesn't have the tools to mix/master
professional sounding tracks, they're wrong. We have proof!
