This was a nice surprise. Lured by a free MS-20 filter plugin, I rediscovered my old Arturia account,
and that they now use a tool to manage downloads and authorizations. I installed that by the wine
that comes with AVLinux, and then launched it as a windows app in wine.
While not super speedy, it did install and authorize the filter plugin, as well as a pair of
previous gift plugins, and two demo versions I picked out from their large product lineup. (Analog Factory V4 and a
Yamaha CS-80 wannabee). Both worked OK using the windows version of Reaper in wine.
Their demos run with load/save disabled, in 20 minute sessions, then need a reload.
If you know someone with Arturia hardware you like, maybe you can linux test some Arturia editor or utility
that's part of their setup? Some longshots get lucky
Cheers
