Solution 2

There's nothing as easy as FL Studio in linux. but if you combine some of the applications, you can have pretty much same advantages.

try:

• LMMS/Guitarix/zynaddsubfx for creating music tracks.
• Hydrogen for creating Drum loops
• Ardour for Mixing
• Jack for connecting all these together

These tools are very much powerful specially Ardour is a mature project. pretty much replaces Fl studio for me.

you can find many good video tutorial in Youtube to start up.

Happy music making.
