So, testing plugins on occasion, I found out that my #Linux #UbuntuStudio 24.04 does not run #WindowsVST any more.

It just doesn't work no more. I mean, the VSTs do run, but the GUIs are all not useable.

This might be due to a switch to #Nvidia graphics, which I had hoped to solve a problem with #Lightworks, which it didn't.

So basically, I can't do audio production any more, because I need #Voxengo #Elephant and #Fabfilter.

There is no mouse pointer in Windows #VST gui windows. Some windows are just plain black. Of plugins I have been using literally for over a decade.

Other #Wine applications do run with GUI. I'm using #LinVST, which used to work well for years. (And still on #X11, no #Wayland)

I'm screwed. Either I will be able to solve this somehow, or I can't accept production jobs.

This wouldn't have happened on macOS, I must say… as a person doing recording on Linux for 20 years now, including a couple of full-blown album releases.

Ainakin 1000 tuntia #Lightworks:issä Fedoralla taas.

Odotan puheluita Hollywoodista, Industrial Light And Magiciltä ja ketä meitä oli.

Michael Höfgen hat eine Arcona 385 hart auf Regatta getrimmt. Aber die Familie fühlt sich auch wohl an Bord. Wir sind mitgesegelt.

#Lightworks gibt es aktuell wieder mit hohem Rabatt. Ist ein sehr guter Videoeditor, der auch unter #Linux läuft.

Leider closed source, aber dafür so unglaublich viel besser als so ziemlich alle Open-Source-Alternativen 😔
