Re: 5k2k display and AMD Linux drivers

Why 5k? You're going to have to use it at a minimum of 200% scaling to be able to see anything comfortably which will give you an effective resolution somewhere around 3440 x 1440. So why not just get a monitor with that resolution and use it at 100% scaling. It will be cheaper and less taxing on yo...

some audio and some VSTi's,

VST 1 didn't include VSTi, they came with VST2.0 back in 1999. What makes you think the plugins you have are VST1?

Re: Digital Crackle with USB Audio Interfaces

Is it definitely a digital problem and not a hardware connection issue between the speakers and the DAC?

Re: LADSPA impulse response plugin.

The GUI of a plugin shouldn't eat up any CPU when the GUI is closed. So I wouldn't stress too much about it.

Re: chords out of tone samples in batch

Signet can do pitch shifting. Using a bash script you could loop through a folder of samples to batch process them - https://github.com/SamWindell/Signet

The website refused the download due to me using Linux... wtf?! So - No

You can install a browser addon that lets you set the user-agent so your browser will appear as Windows to Spitfire's website.

Re: recommended tool for high quality sample rate conversion?

SoX is the way to go, it will change the sample rate without reencoding the audio.

There's also Signet which can do sample rate conversions - https://github.com/SamWindell/Signet

Re: Intel AI effects for Audacity

For subtitle generation (for video) I use the OpenAI tool within Kdenlive, which also has translation support.

Would I find an inexpensive secondhand tablet that could do this

Don't pretty much all tablets run iOS or Android? The only others I'm aware of are the Surface tablets, I'm not sure if they can run Linux though.
