WINE 8.7 also a WINEASIO failure.

lol ForestHH I remember when I started using Linux and Reaper (native) I was so delighted with a thought of having VST/LV2 presets and config files in just a couple of locations, easier to find and backup. Oh I was sooo wrong... presets everywhere, configs everywhere, licenses everywhere... the worst is when devs use root of the home folder to store settings and licenses.
there is .config folder for all your stuff, devs. Everything you want to store in user's folder should go there. Not in Documents, not in the root of home folder, not even in an "invisible" .plugin root folder, because there are tons of plugins and if everyone had it their own way, you get what we have now and it's hard to backup everything. All one can do is backup whole home partition/folder, or spend considerable time finding and collecting all the files you put everywhere you like at the moment. Some even change the company names between plugin versions so you get the same plugins configs at two different places... aaaargh! ***sigh of relief*** Great thread, people. I am playing with WINE and LinVST to just run some Win VSTs in Reaper and this thread helps along with this whole Linux part of the forum, of course. Cheers!

From my limited experience, u-he and Vital are major offenders, creating their own directories in ~HOME, sometimes not only for config files but for the plugin .so files as well. Reaper is good enough, using .config/REAPER/. The best would be to, of course, contain ALMOST EVERYTHING within the app install dir (except maybe vst/vst3/clap executables).

As for U-he, I'll take wherever they throw their files. TBH, I'm just grateful they released Linux versions of their plugins. I don't care if they save their files in hieroglyphics on stone tablets, I'll still take them. But I do get your point. IMO over the years, there were best practices and consensus that built up among many Win/Mac devs on those platforms for plugins, etc., but Linux has its own best practices and traditions, and some Win/Mac devs who are now porting products over haven't adjusted or aligned themselves yet. Hopefully they will soon. |

Here's a weirdity...
On my system REAPER on WINE connects to WINEASIO, which in turn connects to the simulated JACK that PipeWire provides. This works fine for MIDI and audio in (and audio from two different sound devices at that). REAPER off WINE, as you might expect, talks directly to the simulated JACK that PipeWire provides. And lo! it has stopped working! According to qpwgraph everything is wired up correctly, but neither MIDI nor audio input is detected by REAPER. All the meters stay black, and the status line at the top says "0.0ms JACK" instead of "5.33 ms JACK". In the triage department, other Linux DAWs have no trouble, and I rolled REAPER and the kernel back several versions with no change. Trés bizarre, non?

I had a similar issue as you did. When I open WINE REAPER, it crashes immediately.
I found a possible solution that you can use as a reference:

I should have been more specific: the issue is not that REAPER crashes, but that the regsvr32 on post-8.2 WINE is broken such that it can't register the WINEASIO .dll/.so.

Hah! Mark the WINEASIO issue as semi-solved: I compiled the source under the current wine-staging-dev package, and it regsvr32'd successfully and seems to work, so the issue appears to be that the version in the kxstudio repos is out of date.
[I also tried compiling wine-tkg, but ran aground on its Debian target being version 11. Unsatisfiable dependencies, unapplyable patches...]
