Anyone got the sfizz vst3 plugin to work in bitwig on linux?
sfizz (https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz), which loads sfz multisamples and is open source, comes as vst3 plugin, and it can be installed in manjaro, but I haven't been able to use it in bitwig yet.

How do I change an instrument sound in the mixer? No options shows up in the mixer sound menu? 🤔
You could install a VST (like sfizz) and whatever soundfonts you'd like to use (Musical Artifacts is a great site to find some), then pull up the VST to switch instruments.

Sfizz in LMMS Linux
So I'm trying to migrate to Linux and want to use the VSCO Community Orchestra Pack. On the site it recommends using sfizz to load the files. So, I've gone to their website, installed as the sfizz website instructed... But there's nothing? Nothing in LMMS or anything showing up on my system. I'm assuming there's some piece of software I'm missing here.

Any good music programs like garage band or fruity loops?
Free and opensource DAWs: Ardour is the "standard" traditional DAW, but I recommend checking out Zrythm or Qtractor as you might prefer their workflows.
