In any case,
Linux Sampler and Kontakt are
different sorts of samplers at this point. Linux Sampler is more in the spirit
of Gigasampler, and Kontakt is more like an emulation of a hardware sampler (but
vastly more flexible).
The key words there are "at this point." As noted, the *long-term*
potential of Linux Sampler is probably still much greater than Kontakt-in-wine.
Noted. However, I remain unconvinced that Linux Sampler is intended to be a
drop-in replacement for something like Kontakt.
I don't think it's intended to be a drop-in replacement for Kontakt; I
think it's just intended to be cool.
