Really the solution is to kindly pester plugin devs until they add themselves to this list of clap plugins clapdb.tech

Yes it really depends on the audio interface of course but driver quality and utility tends to vary a lot. Mac is a lot more user friendly tbh but it comes at a steep price (and is as a hobbyist audio programmer less fun to develop for)

I suppose trackers are a bit of an acquired taste these days, I've played with them since Impulse Tracker which is part of why I love Renoise that much (that and it's Lua support). But it's so much more of course even without scripting.
I just wish Renoise would add clap and MPE support someday.

Understandable, Reaper is affordable and my goto DAW but it's really not Ableton Live. I'm still saving up for Bitwig myself which does fill that hole (unless you need Max for Live specifically) but it's an investment for sure.

Reaper, Bitwig, Renoise are all excellent. DAWs have come a long way for linux, it's just Ableton that's lagging behind.

Some older versions of Ableton run fairly well under Wine, but I've had no luck with it since Ableton 11.
