Ardour is a multichannel hard disk recorder (HDR) and digital audio workstation (DAW). It can be used to control, record, edit and run complex audio setups.

Ardour supports pro-audio interfaces through the ALSA project, which provides high quality, well designed device drivers and API's for audio I/O under Linux. Any interface supported by ALSA can be used with Ardour. This includes the all-digital 26 channel RME Hammerfall, the Midiman Delta 1010 and many others.

Ardour has support for 24 bit samples using floating point internally, non-linear editing with unlimited undo, a user-configurable mixer, MTC master/slave capabilities, MIDI hardware control surface compatibility.

It supports MIDI Machine Control, and so can be controlled from any MMC controller and many modern digital mixers.

Ardour contains a powerful multitrack audio editor/arranger that is completely non-destructive and capable of all standard non-linear editing operations (insert, replace, delete, move, trim, select, cut/copy/paste). The editor has unlimited undo/redo capabilities and can save independent "versions" of a track or an entire piece

Ardour's editor supports the community-developed LADSPA plugin standard. Arbitrary chains of plugins can be attached to any portion of a track. Every mixer strip can have any number of inputs and outputs, not just mono, stereo or 5.1. An N-way panner is included, with support for various panning models. Pre- and post-fader sends exist, each with their own gain and pan controls. Every mixer strip acts as its own bus, and thus the bus count in Ardour is unlimited. You can submix any number of strips into another strip.

Ardour's channel capacity is limited only by the number on your audio interface and the ability of your disk subsystem to stream the data back and forth.

JACK (the JACK Audio Connection Kit) is used for all audio I/O, permitting data to be exchanged in perfect samplesync with other applications and/or hardware audio interfaces.

Ardour is sample rate and size neutral - any hardware formats from 8 to 32 bits, and rates from 8kHz to 192kHz. Internal processing in 32/64 bit IEEE floating point format.

Audacity is a multi-track audio editor for Linux/Unix, MacOS and Windows. It is designed for easy recording, playing and editing of digital audio. Audacity features digital effects and spectrum analysis tools. Editing is very fast and provides unlimited undo/redo.

Supported file formats include Ogg Vorbis, MP2, MP3, WAV, AIFF, and AU.

Blender es una solución integrada de 3d para modelar, animar, generar imágenes, post-procesarlas y hacer creaciones interactivas (juegos). Blender tiene su particular interfaz de usuario, que está implementada íntegramente en OpenGL y diseñada con el rendimiento como premisa. Dispone de enlaces con Python para hacer «scripts»; la importación y exportación de formatos de fichero populares como 3D Studio y Wavefront Obj han sido implementadas como «scripts» por la comunidad. Fotos fijas, animaciones, modelos para juegos u otros motores de terceros y contenido interactivo en forma de binarios autónomos son productos comunes del uso de Blender.

GIMP es un editor de imágenes avanzado que puede usarse para editar, mejorar y retocar fotos y documentos escaneados, crear dibujos y hacer sus propias imágenes. Tiene una gran colección de herramientas de edición a nivel profesional y filtros, similares a los que puede encontrar en Photoshop, así como numerosos ajustes finos y características como capas, rutas, máscaras y guiones con secuencias de órdenes que le proporcionan un control total sobre las imágenes.

Es compatible con muchos formatos de archivos de imágenes, incluidos JPEG, Photoshop (.psd) y archivos Paint Shop Pro (.psp). Se puede usar para escanear e imprimir fotos.

Para abrir archivos remotos (por HTTP), instale el paquete gvfs-backend.

Para usar un dispositivo MIDI (como un teclado) como un controlador de entrada en GIMP, instale libasound2 y lea el «cómo» en /usr/share/doc/gimp/README.MIDI

GOverlay can configure Vulkan / OpenGL overlays with a preview. Currently supported are MangoHud, vkBasalt and ReplaySorcery.

Inkscape is an illustration editor which has everything needed to create professional-quality computer art. You can use it to make diagrams and illustrations, technical drawings, web graphics, clip art, icons and logos. A collection of hands-on tutorials show you how to combine lines, shapes and text of different types and styles to build up a picture.

A selection of powerful vector graphics editing tools comes as standard. There is excellent support for paths, gradients, layers, alpha transparency and text flow control. An extensive library of filters allow you to apply realistic effects and extensions allow you to work with bitmaps, barcodes and printing marks, amongst other things.

Most of the common vector formats are supported, including PDF, Adobe Illustrator and AutoCAD files, and it has unrivalled support for the SVG web graphics standard.

Between the suggested packages:

• dia: to export Dia shapes;
• libsvg-perl: to import .txt files (txt2svg extension);
• python3-packaging: used by the Optimized SVG extension;
• python3-uniconvertor: enables several import/export extensions;
• pstoedit: to work with eps files;
• ruby: there are several extensions written in ruby;

mtPaint es un programa de edición gráfica libre y de código abierto que usa el conjunto de herramientas GTK+. Está orientado a crear imágenes con una paleta indexada y arte con píxeles.

Debido a su diseño eficiente se puede ejecutar en una máquina antigua (por ejemplo: una CPU 200 MHz y 32 MB de RAM). Puede editar imágenes con una paleta indexada o imágenes RGB de 24 bits, y ofrece herramientas básicas de dibujado y manipulación de paletas.

Está orientado a ser simple y sencillo de usar, también puede manejar archivos JPEG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, XPM y XBM.

POV-Ray is a full-featured ray tracer. Ray tracers simulate objects and light sources of the real world to calculate photorealistic, computer generated images. Because of the nature of ray tracing, this process is quite CPU-intensive, at the benefit of more realistic images compared to real time rendering techniques. For example, in POV-Ray, you can model a glass prism, and you will see a spectrum in the resulting image.

POV-Ray by itself is a command-line utility that will take scene descriptions, written in a special easy-to-understand language, to produce ray-traced images (or even a sequence of images, for animations). You can either write those scene-descriptions by hand, or use external tools to generate (parts of) the scene.

povray-includes is highly recommended in addition to this package.

Tiled is a general purpose tile map editor. It's built to be easy to use, yet capable of catering to a host of varying game engines, whether your game is an RPG, platformer or Breakout clone. Tiled supports plugins to read and write map formats, in addition to its map format, to support map formats in use by engines.
