Linux support for Hybrid Filter

Hi team, I tried using Hybrid From later using Yabridge and Wine on Linux and found out that the UI is not interacting as I expected; to be frank it's not responding to my mouse at all. I thought it would be a place to shoot my shot in terms of feature requests to get Linux support for the Hybrid Filter plugin.

The reasons why Linux support makes sense:

  • Windows 10 is ending support and a lot of people are moving to Linux on older machines. Having native support will let users keep using Hybrid Filter.

  • Support for Linux = larger user base. For the most part Mac and Windows dominate the audio space. But, it could be argued that optimizing the UI to work across platforms, more potential customers and users will be on-boarded and want to purchase Minimal Audio products.

  • CLAP supported plugins work well on Linux. If you decide against full native support, do consider CLAP support. Companies such as Fabfilter do support CLAP versions of their plugins but not native, and the Yabridge and Wine integration is seamless. Uhe does both CLAP and native versions, and I think if Hybrid Filter can satisfy one or the other, it would be great for us.

I am open to discussing this further and showcasing the issues of running Hybrid Filter on Linux, and open to brainstorming with others in case you need a stronger case as to why Linux support should be needed.

    Even just Wine compatibility would be nice. I’m running FL Studio in Bottles on Pop!_OS, works great, lots of really complex plugins work great, but Minimal Audio plugins won’t even load, and I’m not finding any tips anywhere on supporting them better in my setup. Logs don’t even report any errors.

    +1 for this. I only came here because of the Bitwig promo, and was disappointed to see my OS unsupported. I use Bitwig and Renoise on Linux and have no interest in running a commercial OS. I will only use your plugins or other products if they work on my OS.

    Yep, Linux support would be a god tier move. Renoise plus my full collection of Minimal Audio plugins, U-He, Audio Damage and AudioThing would leave me set for life. Not an exaggeration to say that it's only plugins that keep me on Windows.
