So it is. The main difference is that A/DeMuDi is free. I don't think there is
any competition. I expect the Fervent system will have a more up to date
version of Rosegarden, which will probably work out of the box. I wonder if
it might provide a similar kind of one-pointed 'pro-audio' support for Ardour
and other applications as has been suggested else-thread?
