Back when I was a windows cuck, I used to do some music production as a hobby on FL Studio. I'm getting the urge to start again, but now I am on Linux. What are my options? I need a DAW that a) can handle vsts (I have purchased many synths and other stuff), b) can handle samples from splice and c) can handle midi keyboard
Is there anything like this on Linux, preferably open source, but anything will do really? Or should I install Windows on a seperate drive and boot into that when I wanna make some music? I really hate this option and would like to avoid it. I also had another crazy idea. Creating my own DAW that does the things I want, from an existing Open Source DAW. Is this even possible? How much time and knowledge would this require? I'm just a CS student.
Pretty much the only DAW there is on Linux is LMMS, you could probably run FL Studio in wine though

everyone itt is wrong. bitwig runs native and is made by ex ableton engineers. vsts are generally platform specific in a lot of cases but bitwig supports vst none the less

daws are all fucked up on linux due to vst's, I'd honestly recommend to not even bother trying to get everything to work.
Adam Barnes
LMMS all the way

None. Avoid Linux for DAWs. It's a mess and nothing works.

Dual boot or use VMware PCI Pass through or even wine

FL Studio in Windows VM Unfortunately, despite how good Linux is, it's lackluster in the software availability department
