Talking to Wine Bottles (not like winos do)

Post by MusoCity »

There’s no Linux version of Band in a Box so you need to run it under Wine.
Under Win/Mac the Band in a Box VST/AU Plugin talks to the main Biab app running silently in the back ground, it generates up the audio and midi tracks from the chord sheet in the Plugin to a local folder that the Plugin then uses to play back in sync with the DAW or to drag into the DAW.
Under Linux how would you go with Ardour or a Linux a VST talking to the Biab app in a Wine Bottle would it be possible ?

I think it can be done the same way how BandinaBoxServer.exe is used to communicate with the android app
so the android app tells the Biab app on the PC what tracks to generate up and send to the android app.
So if they make a LinuxVST that communicates with the Biab app under Wine the same way this should work.
