vital VS yabridge

This was the first subtractive snth I got really into. It's so good!

Matt Tytel also made an open source wave table synth called vital that I'm also in love with that you can find here:

https://vital.audio/

git repo is here:

https://github.com/mtytel/vital

Orrrr, you take a look at this https://github.com/mtytel/vital - and see what you can figure out :)

Vital/Vitalium by Matt Tytell — a beast of a spectral wavetable synth. 3 oscillators, sampler, 2 filters, 3 env/LFOs, bunch of macro controls, great in-built effects (compressor, distortion, verb, delay, etc.), and so so much more. Hats off to Matt for this, this is an achievement! Vital is free with a "basic" setup of 75 presets/25 wavetables, there are also options for monthly subscription / "plus" / "pro" upgrades for more presets, skins, and other perks. Matt published Vital's source code but isn't accepting pull requests; Vitalium is a community fork of Vital.

It's apparently been open source for less than a month under GPLv3: https://github.com/mtytel/vital

As recently as the end of 02020 they were planning to not open-source it: https://forum.vital.audio/t/is-vital-actually-open-source/13...

Vital. Knew it was free, just found out it's OSS too!

Not sure about the pens you mentioned specifically but Vital is pretto good looking and open source https://github.com/mtytel/vital

Vital (with the easiest totally open source version available from KXStudio's version and a nice free, preset pack)

It absolutely looks to be open source to me? https://github.com/mtytel/vital

> To my knowledge all VST plugins can be used on Linux (via Wine). Is that not the case?

Yes, although I would recommend Yabridge rather than linvst.

It should be already packaged in some Linux distros, but building and installation are straightforward. Basically it installs some libraries and an executable which once called will convert a Windows plugin in .dll form in a Linux+WINE loadable .so library.

If you use the Linux port, you may want to use Yabridge to load Windows VSTs in a transparent way.

Look into yabridge. You can test it with your plugins to confirm it'll work. Won't cost you anything.

But yeah Yabridge for me worked the best way. https://github.com/robbert-vdh/yabridge

NAM vst works with Yabridge. You will get native GUI that way. Protesus is a good alternative with native Linux version and it is integrated into BYOD through GuitarML processor. BYOD is the best sounding guitar software (IMHO), Linux or not.
