I’m currently using a found version of Adobe Audition and I love it but I want to find a FOSS alternative. I have tried Audacity in the past but it is/was missing a lot of the features I require. Anyone have a good recommendation?

    I don’t believe LMMS can do audio tracks, so Ardour would be the one to go with.

      I’m not sure about LMMS as I never got to try it, but I’ve had it strongly recommended a few times so I figured it would work here too. The only issue I have with Ardour is that all plugins need to be installed separately (assuming OP hasn’t installed them already). I also came across Stargate recently, and it seemed just fine after looking around. I can’t say if it would be enough for OP, but nothing wrong with more options :)

        I recently purchased a copy of Ardour, and I have noticed that, but I have found most basic plugins can be found for free.

        Options are key.

          That’s true. In fact, Arch linux even has a handy package (pro-audio) that installs every plugin you’ll need at once. Still, some people might prefer to have plugins built-in or it might be too much hassle for them to look for every plugin from outside (it certainly was for me when I was starting out)
