Well, I’ve tried it, and Amplitube runs just fine in linux. Here’s a screenshot running amplitube 5 in Bitwig 6

But they don’t smell the same though

I have total studio 5 max, which includes amplitube. I haven’t used amplitube yet, but I could try it if you like. Haven’t had problems with the other IK Multimedia products thought. I also own the whole Arturia suite (instruments & FX), cherry audio and Melda suites, all without issues. And lots of one-offs.

As I said : native instruments plugins were, and still are, the main ones that give me grief. Given that I had bought Komplete Ultimate edition (version 13 or 14), that was a bit of a bummer. But I’ve always hated Kontakt. And their other products were also always not quite what I needed.

In total I have about 750 windows vsts running on my Linux machine. Lots of them are doubles, because I have both the vst2 and vst3 version of the plugin when available, but that still leaves me with more than 300 unique windows vsts. If you tell me what vsts you want to run, I’ll check if I have them, or stuff made by the same people. And if I don’t have anything, usually they have demos I can try. Or you might point me towards something I want as well.

Just ask me.

Tons of VST’s work using yabridge.

Not Native Instruments though (their VST’s should work but I can’t get Native Access to run). And I don’t run any VST’s that need iLok.

Yabridge has a bug with wine versions later than (I think) 9.22, where the VST thinks the mouse is in another place than it really is.

Solutions are : make sure the VST window is at 0,0, or use an older version of wine, or there is a patch for yabridge that works in most cases, but hasn’t been merged in yet. I’m running that.
