Yeah, I agree with the poster below me. After many attempts at getting a mix of audacity and darkwave studio to do anything worthwhile, I found this program. Couldn't ask for anything more complex. My only issue is it's a bit daunting to navigate at first and I can't seem to find any worthwhile guides in English. They're all for specific machines and not the general operation of the program itself. Anyway, awesome beat :)
This is undeniable proof that Buzz rivals all of the big-boys out there. I'm just getting into Buzz myself, and I'm beginning to see the near-limitless potential it has after playing around with it for a bit. It's wonderful to know that awesome tracks like these can easily be created by any capable composer with effort. Best part of all- it's FREE!
But yeah, it's not the tools, it's the user. Buzz takes a lot more time to get a fast workflow going than in many (most) other programs, but on the upside, once you master it there aren't really limits.
My experiences is opposite. I compose with BUZZ very quickly compared to anything else i have ever tried.
Of course it is a matter of time used to learn sequencer and keyboard shortcuts, i have used BUZZ over decade while used other competing software or hardware sequencers just short periods.
Anyhow my experiences with all others have been that it takes ages to make even simplest possible four on the floor beat, while with BUZZ it happens immediately while i think about it.
I has been a Buzz user for years before moving on to Renoise because I need a faster way to compose (Buzz has limited tracker space, which is suck).
Buzz is still kicking ass.

@binbashLinuxAhole Renoise looks pretty slick...and it even has a Linux version! :-D

F1 shows integrated HELP. Hmm.. to difficulties to navigate i suggest everyone to create their own version of their favourite index.txt.
Like i've made new root folder for both my favourite generators and effects. Then i can get them loaded quickly with right clicking machine window.
