Kontakt works relatively well in Wine actually, but that is beside the
primary point of the conversation.

I know this is somewhat already covered in this

straight from the head of Chicken Systems (a friend of mine). I asked him
if there was any way beyond converting the samples (which Translator can do
just fine) to get the Kontakt samples into Linux, and this was his reply:
"All the scripting is lost, there's nothing really to convert it to since
no other platform is as intelligent. Of course, EastWest uses Python and I
forgot what MachFive 3 uses, but I'm not sure how demanded such a
conversion is."
So, until NI ports Kontakt to Linux, or someone else makes an equivalent
or better sampler for Linux, we'll have to stick with some form of Windows.
Unless I've missed it, has anyone gotten it to work with Wine, or through
Windows in VirtualBox? I'm building a machine that will have most versions
of Windows as VirtualBoxes, just to experiment with it, & to get away from
Windows, albeit slowly, but this isn't my DAW, just a strong Linux (Fedora
17) box.
