Linux support for Toontrack products

DAWs like Reaper and Ardour work on Linux just fine, but the Toontrack stack not supporting it fully breaks the experience. Using Wine I can get quite a long way with using EZ Drummer on Linux, but it’s less than ideal. Even though VST should be OS agnostic, it’s clear Toontrack products weren’t developed with Linux in mind. And that’s a shame, because nobody I know who’s into audio engineering willingly chooses Windows.

Please support Linux.

+1 for Linux support. EZDrummer is the only thing keeping me on Windows, and I will most likely move away from it within the next year if it doesn’t support it. At the very least, it would be nice to have a dedicated guide for running under Wine (or Bottles), and fix any bugs that are low-hanging-fruit when running in Wine.
