I found this gem and wanted to share it with you. Reaper being available for Linux is a pretty great thing but generally I didn’t find many audio plugins being made available for Linux, especially plugins that try to recreate vintage hardware.

Anyway, here’s a project that has a lot of those being written directly for Reaper using its DSP language and I can confirm they work on Linux.

The dev has a YT channel where he shares progress: https://www.youtube.com/@johnmatthews8435

Happy music making!

    Just remember you might prefer some grit to your dx7 patches, especially to make them sit in the mix. Idk personal taste but remember that modern DAWs and home recording devices are massively higher fidelity than they used to be, and the dx7 wasn’t necessarily designed for a super clean signal chain. I recommend loading up a saturator, or characterful compressor onto your dex vsti track before you even start browsing patches and judge them with a touch of dirt added in. Or whatever, it is music do whatever you want!
