It takes a stable ABI and a single target for apps. Don’t expect music production to ever show up for gnu/linux. Maybe Android

  Bitwig is available for Linux, but I don't know what the limitations are.

    A lot of VSTS aren't going to work even with tricks like WINE. They often have complicated auth systems, etc. I don't really want to learn a new DAW.

      A lot of people give high praise to Yabridge, but I myself haven't tried using it for my existing VST library and just found alternative plugins that work with linux.

      > They often have complicated auth systems, etc. The paranoia audio devs have with piracy is insane. Ironically I think the worse your DRM is, the more your product should be pirated :)

        It's often 20% DRM and 80% marketing. Ohh cool, this plugin is "free". Looks like I have to register for an account and install a bunch of unrelated crap I really don't want. The up selling never stops. Then again. 30 years ago a lot of these trucks were straight up impossible without spending tens of thousands.
