Hi,
The problem with this direction, I think, is that jack support for wine
is probably very distant (alsa is not even there yet). So low latency
work is impossible, ruling out many other types of work.

Assuming that Linux music production actually has a future, one would
hope that this would be the case. Meanwhile:
As a demonstration of what can be done right now, here's something I did today
entirely with entry-level *Windows software running under WINE*, no plugins
involved (so I guess it's slightly off-topic), and *not* including CompMuzys:
http://home.earthlink.net/~davidrclark/linux_audio_users/slow_rock.ogg
Composition/edit -> MIDI edit and arrange -> Mix -> one-button record ->
WAV file. (Then Linux oggenc for publishing.) External synth. About
90 minutes total.
I believe that this is a realistic scenario for a music production person
in a hurry at a TV station, for example --- beyond the work process involved
with merely recording a guitar for a minute or two, but not CD production.
Who knows what else those WINE guys might make happen?
Note: I did *not* use my Green's-function 3-D audio programs on this, so the
reverb doesn't sound like my normal stuff with headphones, in case anyone
notices.
Regards to all,
Dave.
