I asked about this once, basically the answer I got was that its in the pipeworks.

Hope its soonish though coz that means I'll be able to get rid of windoze!!

Only if you have some VSTi's that run on Linux... or am I missing something? I guess not everyone uses them do thoey?

Or is it going to work like some kind of adapter in that regard??? Please correct me if I am wrong. I don't mean any of this as a put down or a "proper".

cheerx.

Not a expert but most of the vsti's is just a .dll. If enegyXT knows how to use this file there would be no problem.

yeah but isnt the dll created using native callbacks to a particular os?
i dont know im asking out of interest

cheers

As far as I know, MUSE (Linux audio program) can already use VSTi's. Vis-a-vis, XT should be able to, too... if its true of course, I could be dreaming that MUSE supports them...

i tell you what though
if XT could be gotten up and running in linux
doesnt this mean that a custom version of linux could be built just for XT
ala final scratch witch is very very stable under live use

cheers

Many Windows VSTs will run on Linux using vst-server and Wine.

this is starting to sound very f**king interesting (scuse my french)
but i run final scratch out live 2-3 times a week and it hasnt bailed on me once(even when the 12 blew up and took the lighting rig with it

)

so im very interested if someone is gonna do the port

i think jorgen may be too busy keeping us bastards happy at the mo though
so this may not be a high priority

cheers

Let's not forget the upcoming GMPI...

That looks exciting NicFit, do you know much about it? Lot's of innovative ideas there.
I must admit I had a job to see an "overview" of the idea from that site,how would you describe GMPI in layman's terms

I have planned a linux version in 2004. But haven't set a date yet. I have done a lot of coding on linux/eXT already (mostly gui), but I'm not doing the full port until I'm finished with the major features in eXT on windows.

I will do the linux port myself.

I don't plan to support lots of plug-in formats on linux. Only VST, but anyone can make a thin "VST layer" between eXT and any other plug-in standard out there.

Jack support? I think it will be done. At the moment I have only tested with oss (but it's not multi IO is it?)...

cheers
