Wine fans have a reason to smile today. Wine 11.0 is finally here, and it is a big deal for anyone running Windows software on Linux. After a full year of work, more than six thousand code changes, and hundreds of bug fixes, Wine is moving forward in a way that feels like a turning point. This release tightens up major subsystems, improves performance, expands hardware support, and carries a big win for compatibility. If you have been waiting for Wine to feel smoother and a little less fussy, 11.0 might be the moment you jump back in.
Anyone knows if vsts work in this version?
My wine is currently being helt at version 9.21 due to some bugs in newer versions.
While I don’t specifically know about version 11(EDIT: now I do!), but I’ve been running windows daw + vst’s on wine 9-10.?? for ages. Using Renoise + bunch of different vst’s (mix of vst2 and vst3), all of them seem to work just fine. I did have to install dxvk to the wineprefix to get the ui of some plugins to work, but they do work fine(ish) with it.Now, the thing I have NOT tested is ilok drm. So far I’ve managed to do with plugins which don’t use it.
I see wine 11 is already in my distro’s testing repos. Aggressive waiting starts.
edit: for clarification, preset dropdown menu’s from one specific plugin vendor (solemntones) vst’s needs to be click/dragged the right way, otherwise they seem to not work. Bit annoying, but otherwise my plugins work.
edit: seems to work just as well on wine 11. But sample size = me & my vst/vsti’s.
what’s the latency like ?
I’ve set it to 16ms in renoise, not 100% how accurate that is but audio doesn’t crackle and jamming on vsti’s doesn’t seem to have noticeable input delay. I don’t have any actual instruments to test.
16ms would be too laggy to play actual instruments sadly, is it possible for you to set it to 4ms?
