Hmm, which DAW? I know that you can now get DiscoDSP plugins and

PianoTeq for Linux, which is fantastic. Those are both very good.
My experience personally has generally been that I have to be very

careful linking to specific versions of libraries (including something

as basic as libstdc++) and that closed binaries which aren't compiled

for a specific distro only go so far on Linux. I realize this can also

be an issue on other platforms, but it seems to be a problem to a

lesser extent.
But yes, I've been out of the loop as far as using Linux as my main

music workstation for some time. If more commercial devs continue to

embrace it, that is great news!
