FOSS Alternative to Reason?

[Stone Rain]

Hey all!

At home I use a Toshiba laptop as a workstation, it dual boots Ubuntu and Windows 7. Ubuntu of course is faster, looks nicer, etc, but there's a hangup.
I'm a musician, and peripherals work awesomely well with Linux; better so than with Windows, actually. I have switched from Cubase to Audacity as a recording suite.

But does anyone here know of a (decent!) FOSS alternative to Reason Factory?
RF is a top-notch piece of software, and absolutely essential; I love working with it. I just don't like having to keep using Windows for one piece of software!

So please, suggestions?

Have you tried running it with Wine?

It seems that some versions have worked... I'm not sure what version you are using. But perhaps you could get it going...

I don't know what Reason Factory does, but you may find something of interest poking around here...

Follow the links around, and you may come across something. I've seen audio production tools I thought looked pretty good, but I didn't save them cause I'm not in the biz.

Ardour + jack audio maybe
