Rosegarden is a music composition and editing environment for Linux built around a MIDI sequencer with music notation understanding and basic digital audio support. It is described as aimed at composers, musicians, music students, and small studio or home recording environments.
Basic Pitch is an open source audio-to-MIDI converter from Spotify that features pitch bend detection. It works on recordings of almost any single instrument, including voice, and converts audio files into MIDI files that can be edited in a digital audio workstation. It is available as an online demo.
DrumBit is a web-based drum machine built with HTML5 and compatible with modern browsers. It lets users choose drum kits, create, save and edit drum patterns, apply filters and room effects, and record patterns as audio files. It aims to be easy to use.
plugdata is a free, open-source visual audio programming environment and a modern fork of Pure Data. It offers VST3, AU, CLAP and LV2 plugin export, includes the ELSE and Cyclone libraries, and supports Daisy hardware and code export. It runs as a standalone app, a DAW plugin, or on embedded hardware.
Vital is a spectral warping wavetable synthesizer. Its spectral oscillator warping acts on a waveform's harmonics to create different shapes and timbres. Users can convert their own samples into wavetables with the pitch-splice or vocode converter, or use the built-in wavetable editor. The interface includes animated controls, filter responses, waveforms and spectrograms.
Bosca Ceoil: The Blue Album is a beginner-friendly music making app with a step sequencer and a selection of synthesized instruments. It is available as a desktop download and directly in the browser; the documentation states the functionality of either version is identical. The documentation covers the most recent stable release, version 3.1.2.
REAPER is a digital audio production application for Windows, macOS and Linux. It provides multitrack audio and MIDI recording, editing, processing, mixing and mastering, supports many plug-in formats, and can be extended and scripted. A single fully featured version is available for evaluation for 60 days.
