I used to create songs in FL Studio when I used Windows, but now I have switched to Fedora. Does FL Studio run well via wine, or I should better pick a Linux-native DAW? How do I handle Windows vst3 plugins? It is possible to switch to native Linux solutions, but I would actually like to preserve my regular workflow within FL. Any relevant tips and advice are welcome
Bitwig is the best native software I could find for myself - it’s similar to ableton in some ways, but different enough to be unique.
You can also use yabridge to run most windows plugins (including kontakt)
While you can install Bitwig on Fedora via Flatpak, Yabridge will not work that way (unless things have changed in recent years). You will be able to install Yabridge and any Windows VSTs, but Bitwig will not actually see them.
This repo has a tool that helps in creating a Bitwig installer for Fedora. It converts the official Bitwig DEB file (which is the installer that allows them to target Ubuntu) into an RPM file and installs the necessary prerequisite packages. If you install Bitwig this way, using this RPM file, Yabridge works.
