RE: [linux-audio-dev] Fwd: Opinions on running VST or DirectX plugins on Linux in real time

David, Actually, if I wanted to get my hopes up, I would have asked for Pro Tools running under wine. Now that would be quite an accomplishment... Being that I'm just a user type, I actually don't understand why this sort of thing doesn't actually work. PTLE has it's own hardware. No one talks to it except Pro Tools. I'd love to be able to run it, output Pro Tools audio on the ADAT interface, and pipe it digitally back into my RME running Ardour and other jack enable apps. That doesn't actually require the wine audio to become jack enabled. It just requires a speedy computer to run Pro Tools + whatever disk subsystem necessary to move PTLE audio. Now that would be a fun Linux audio box! ;-) I won't be getting my hopes up anytime soon... (Unless some tells me it already works!!)

Don't get your hopes up. I can't even get Sibelius to run in wine - and I didn't even attempt midi entry or playback. Besides, I don't know what wine's overhead is, but I can't imagine that the performance you'd get would be worth it, even if you did get it to work. -dgm
