You can’t use regular windows dll or vst3 plugins on linux, you’ll need to wrap them. Linuxvstmanager (https://github.com/Goli4thus/linvstmanager) is my favorite but their are other options out there like Carla.
depending on if you are installing Linux or windows vsts. if Linux you can install those through the repository store that is used on Linux mint as they would be either in the .vst folder located on your home directory or the .vst3 if they are vst 3 files.if you are trying to install windows vsts then there are more steps to get them running. yabridge(github link:https://github.com/robbert-vdh/yabridge) works best(this was the case awhile ago as newer wine version would cause bugs in programs) is 6.4 and it seems to work better if you use wine-tkg build of wine(wine-tkg build here https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git/releases/tag/6.4.r0.g7ec998e1) you will need to compile this as their is no version for Ubuntu(which is what Linux mint is based on) so follow the compilation script here https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git/blob/master/wine-tkg-git/non-makepkg-build.sh. to downgrade using the reguar version of wine follow the directions here https://github.com/robbert-vdh/yabridge#downgrading-wine or you can also run the latest version of wine 6.17 staging as that also seems to work but your mileage with vsts may very. then follow the direction on the yabridge git usage section to install yabridge to your specification. now to install your vsts(this is how i do it as it is better to keep separate prefixes for each group or company of vsts such as a prefix for spitfire or native so if it goes belly up you can delete and install that one prefix instead of having to reinstall all your plugins). in your home directory create a folder called VSTs(this is where you will keep your vsts plugins) then create a folder with the name of the company or whatever naming system you choose) next right click over the folder and click copy file location next in a command-line do WINEPREFIX="location of folder" winetricks(you should install winetricks as it is a very useful tool). this will initialize the wine prefix, next install your prefixes. now to add them to yabridge do yabridge add "location of the prefix dlls inside of the wineprefix"). now depending if they are vst2 or vst3 you will go down different paths, if the plugin is vst3 then a folder will be created inside of .vst3 call yabridge that will contain the linux version of the vst3, if the plugin is vst2 it will create the linux version of the dlls next to the original windows dlls of the plugin so the best thing to do would to is while focused on the .vst3 folder is to create a soft link so you can easily set one point in your DAW of choice, to do so do ln -s "location of vst2 dlls inside of wine prefix" "name of link so choice a name you will remember the naming scheme setup in the wineprefix nameing. after all that simply add the .vst and the .vst3 folders to you daw when it looks for vsts.
