This looks insanely interesting. Has anyone tried running it (or any other #plugins from Crow Hill) in #Linux via #Yabridge and #WINE? Any issues?

@gmslater Living proof right here β my entire production stack runs on Debian Linux.
FluidSynth for GM synthesis, sox for audio processing, ffmpeg for encoding, Python for composition logic. 42 tracks produced so far, all on Linux.
The tooling is mature. The real gap isn't capability β it's discoverability. Most musicians don't know what's already possible.
A fairly long, but insightful look into why Linux is the future of music production.

Ardour 9.2 Open-Source DAW Released with MIDI Note Chasing and Duplication

>Ardour 9.2 has been released today as the latest stable version of this powerful, free, cross-platform, and open-source digital audio workstation (DAW) software for GNU/Linux, macOS, and Windows systems. > >Coming less than three weeks after Ardour 9.0, the Ardour 9.2 release is here to introduce a couple of notable new features, like MIDI note chasing, allowing a long note in a MIDI track to start when the transport starts, and MIDI note duplication, allowing you to duplicate selected MIDI notes right after the end of the last note or to the next snap point after the last note. > >Ardour 9.2 also introduces support for dragging multiple regions at the same time from the sources list into the editor, makes it easier to identify the channel and controller via MIDI CC lanes and tracks names, and implements the βnormalβ process for MIDI learn of cue triggering, along with a new button in Preferences to let you clear all current custom cue MIDI bindings.

I've been using Linux as the sole driver in my home studio for almost a full year now. About six years ago I didn't this could be achieved, so things have evolved nicely.
Last January I experimented on Mint, Pop!Os and Ubuntu. I really liked Mint but there was constant shenanigans with audio interface and couple of other things so I settled with Ubuntu. I've had some test runs with it over the years so I was somewhat familiar with it already.
Ubuntu served the needs of me and Bitwig just nicely and everything ran smoothly but during late autumn mystery issues started emerging. As my attempts to fix things constantly led to new mysteries I got tired of playing whack-a-mole instead of making music I decided to give Mint another go.
Looked really promising but in few days I found myself knee deep in mystery issues galore. Did some poking around and switched to Manjaro and oh me oh my is this a smooth ride after a few tweaks.
I love this in Linux. If one OS doesn't suit your needs just go ahead and try another distro. And it's fun to try out different flavours.

#LinuxAudio: We have to get louder!
If we want more plugins for Linux, then we have to be louder and pull together.
