Linux hasn’t been on our priority, and we don’t unfortunately comment on any future releases that we may have.

I can appreciate Toontracks position, but I would like to add a voice to the Linux request. With Microsoft and Apple getting increasingly intrusive into our privacy, I have little desire to continue using their products, but have no choice because of the software I want and need to run.

While native support would be nice aren’t there ways around this? I know Bitwig Linux supports VST’s. For the install I think it may be possible you could install on a Windows machine than simply copy over the installed directory and authorize it offline once you open the VST and are prompted to authorize. Or you could try running the installer via Wine. Again I know this is merely a work around however and native would be nice. Us Linux users though as at the end of the line though. Heck, Guitar Pro 6 had a native Linux install and they ditched Linux support when they came out with GP7. This is why for my DAW I just use Windows 7 and keep the computer off the internet.
