Re: "Is there any good music making software that's fully..."
orca is a very cool way of visualizing & structuring musical ideas. it has a built-in synth you can use, or it drives an external piece of hardware or software.

sonicpi comes to mind. It is more of a performance tool where you declaratively "code" your music.

+1 for Orca (wonderful thing); also maybe check out Tidal Cycles. This are both predominately text based; don't think I'm aware of 100% keeb driven music tools that are mainly graphical, unfortunately...

I've used Tidalcycles with the vim plugin for completely mouseless jamming. If you're looking for something more DAW-like, I'm not aware of any. Reaper's custom actions are pretty powerful and you could probably get a mouseless setting pretty far with them.

renoise is a very well maintained but inexpensive tracker that can be controlled entirely with a keyboard.

Is there any good music making software that's fully accessible only using a keyboard? (The typing kind, I mean.) I can't use a mouse, and I can emulate one in a pinch, sure, but I'm curious if there's anything like what I'm describing out there. Preferably with Linux support, but I'll take what I can get. I’ve never learned proper music theory, I just want to noodle around and see if I can make cool sounds :)
