Hi Brian,

I can't help with FstHost, but I'm also using Reaper in Wine for sound
recording and editing. Have your tried using the WineASIO driver for
your audio device?

You may first have to add the KXStudio repositories and install the
"wineasio" package:

I'm not sure if this is the best way to solve this, but it works for me,
even with software monitoring. If there is a better solution and someone
would weigh in, I would be interested as well. :)

There's apparently also version of Reaper for Linux systems in the
works, but I don't know how stable the current build is or how VSTs work
in that.


Kind regards,
Thomas
