Quoting Russell Hanaghan <hanaghan(a)starband.net>et>:
Think I used 4.0 when it first came out...Only worked
as a 500mhz
virtual machine on a 650mhz box. I would think the latency and extra
layers of "stuff" would be hard to live with on a DAW where resources
and latency are king??
Sure! But if it's just a CPU process [a software filter/processor], then
vmWare won't be getting in the way really - and today's boxen are well over
2GHz. But then again, I just realised... how would those hosts communicate
with the linux-side components. I doubt VST has a "network transport" mode,
alas. Alas, I didn't think of that minor detail.
When in doubt, seek Quality.
