Ardour software license#
If it really does make the university uncomfortable, isn't it possible to just add the 60$ license cost onto the price of the course? That's what most users do anyway - they use it until one day they realise they've fallen in love with it, whether that's in the first month or twelfth. Then impress on the students throughout the course, 'As soon as you realise that you are going to keep using Reaper, whenever that is, please buy it as soon as you can to support the project and respect the terms and conditions'. Inform the university that there's an open-ended nag screen after the evaluation period, and that no security will be circumvented by using it for the year. There's also a huge amount of tutorials and support. And if you stick to native effects and the bundled VSTi, it will be easy to share whole projects to the students. There are lots of good free downloadable VSTi instruments available that you could bundle for the class. It has lots of good native processing plugins (and you can share the FX chains with the students). It's very lean and small, and runs very well on old computers and laptops.
A lot of the students might already know Reaper if they've dabbled. Most of your students will appreciate being introduced to Reaper in the long run. For an in-depth audio processing and mixing course?
