  • Back up your data before hand.

    You can use gparted on your mint live session to resize the windows partition to minimal size, leaving the biggest empty space possible. Leave 500mo to the windows partition as a safety net.

    Then during the install process :

    • choose manual install (not install on a full drive),
    • create an ext4 partition for the system (30 to 50 go) with a “/” mount point. It’s the system partition.
    • create a “swap” partition (size = your computer ram x 2). It’s the physical memory partition.
    • last create an ext4 partition (all remaining space) with a “/home” mount point. It’s the personal data partition.

    Once the install completed you will be able to access your windows data from mint.

    You should use Ardour, it’s a DAW with native linux version. It’s free for Linuxuserss and it’s a free software.

    LMMS isn’t really a DAW, as it can really manipulate audio easily, only midi. Reaper and Bitweeg have native Linux version but aren’t free softwares.

    Windows Vst are running fine on linux these days, but on Linux there are a lot of audio plugins on Lv2 format you should try as well… Lastly, native vst for Linux do exist and work flawlessly.
