JamStix on Linux

Post by Ilya Roof »

Great to see that the project is still active! In light of this, I would like to raise the question of a native Linux build once more.

Unfortunately, compatibility layers like Wine + yabridge/LinVst are far from ideal and lack the stability required for a professional workflow. Personally, alongside a good portion of the community, I would be incredibly happy to see native Linux support in the future. Having this port on your roadmap would be fantastic.

I hear you but unfortunately cannot make any promises for a Linux port.
Jamstix is written in Delphi, not C++, so cross-platform stuff is difficult and we've had bad experiences with the macOS development.
Focus right now is to get VST3 done and develop Jamstix 5 for PC.

Well... I think I now understand the scale of the problem. It definitely feels like a cold shower, to be honest.

It seems my best option now is to set up a second Windows machine and use AudioGridder. JamStix is definitely worth it! :)

If you ever decide to give a Linux port a shot in the future, you’ve definitely got a beta tester right here.

Best of luck with your work, and I'm really glad to see you back in active development!
