To avoid using multiple machines. Anyway I've just tried, it's unreliable and unusable just with one plugin - EMVoice - I even had to find older Audiogridder plugin versions because the newer ones don't even start on Linux Mint. The idea is impressive, but the reality is disappointing.

This is only available via Steam. There is a demo you can download to try. The demo doesn't require Steam to run, maybe the full app is the same?

Definitely missing from the list the new (kinda) U-he kids in town, Zebralette 3 and soon Zebra 3.
EDIT: and ZL Equalizer 2.

Korneff's latest plugin has Linux support. I guess the others will get it in time.
C/R makes it a hard pass for me, but this won't bother others.

I cannot find any indication of Linux on that site. And worse than C/R, it requires an iLok account manager.sprnva wrote: Wed Jan 07, 2026 5:17 pm Korneff's latest plugin has Linux support. I guess the others will get it in time.

As far as I can tell, iLok does not run on Linux natively. And this list is specific to natively run plugins.
Going forward on this list, I would ask any suggestion to add to it tell us the copy protection required. Especially iLok and Codemeter, which developers so often hide until you start to install.

Are you still updating the first page?
I appreciate you keeping this list! 
EDIT: It's showing Linux native. They must have found a way to make it work, otherwise it would be a nightmare to support. I'd suggest still listing it, but just note the copy protection next to it and let the user determine whether to use it or not.
Edit 2:
I found the following information on their site:
* Software Based - Korneff Audio uses a software-based licensing system. No USB or hardware dongles, no special drivers are needed.
* Four Activations - Our plugins can be activated on up to four (4) machines at the same time.
* Connections - An internet connection is required to activate our software. Internet connection required for all demos.
Minimum System Requirements
Intel, AMD or Apple Silicon i5 quad core processor
4GB of RAM
Mac OSX 10.14 or higher
Windows 7 & Above
Linux 6.5 & Above, Ubuntu
Screen res: 1024 x 768 or higher

Yes, I'm still updating the list. Just limiting my comments on the forum as much as possible since I have current life priorities taking precedent. Could not find any easily available information from the previous link. Thank you and could you show a direct link to that information? If my time permits I will add a C/R, iL, CM, etc in parentheses to each entry.audiojunkie wrote: Wed Jan 07, 2026 7:26 pm Are you still updating the first page?I appreciate you keeping this list!

Just scroll down to the very bottom of the link that is given. It's way down there.

Found it. However still not seeing that iLok is not used. "Software based" could be the typical iLok diversion of not requiring a dongle while still requiring the iLok manager, which is all I could find in the support pages. And if that requires wine, etc. to run that, then it still doesn't meet this thread intentions. So holding off until I get more and better information.audiojunkie wrote: Wed Jan 07, 2026 7:48 pm Just scroll down to the very bottom of the link that is given. It's way down there.![]()
