Ah that makes sense.
A while back I did a video about all of the major DAWS for Linux including Ardour & Harrison Mixbus(which is based on Ardour but it has a paid license/plugins).

Ardour is amazing for recording, but it's overkill for me.
I use LMMS because it's more plug-in/sample/producer focused.
I use Ocen-Audio for recording my voice-overs for videos. It's similar to Audacity in scope.
