I would love to develop more virtual instruments but don't have the
resources for recording orchestral instruments and choirs. It's doubly
sad that a lot of manufacturers are moving to proprietary sample
engines so you can't even migrate the samples into LinuxSampler or
similar. There are a large number of sample libraries that simply
can't be used on Linux. I'm not saying I like the situation, I'd like
to be running a 100% Linux studio, but have no choice.
