Reaktor has a menu problem (Bug in Bugzilla now) that makes it useless. Crystal and other small VSTs working very well. Groove Agent - GUI is perfect, but no sound and under Alsa it doesn't seem to sync to anything. It jsut free runs. I don't know how to debug it yet so I'm trying to get the kind folks to teach me more. Groove Agent would be a big win. GigaStudio - dies during the install IIRC. Bug in Bugzilla. Almost all of these are using jack_fst with the patch that Walt and Duane helped me with. WIthout the patch they work the same in wine-20040505. > > I have found a handful of MIDI apps that will function, sort of, in Wine. > Something like GigaStudio which needs a machines full processing power, I > simply would not dream of running through an emulater.

Wine on a 3GHz P4 Mobile sounds like it could/should be as fast or faster, I think. We'll see... Yes - I understand. I'm primarily Pro Tools based. It's hardware runs over 1394, so I'm hopeful that one day, possibly, I might have a chance of trying it under Wine.
