Turns out Guitarix is... *pretty* good. Definitely passable. Also, inexplicably, Linux's audio is better than Windows'. ASIO hijacks it all, but Pipewire? You can just record it with anything. Still trying to make presets that compete with my Guitar Rig 5 presets, but I'm sure it can be done. Just a bit'a fiddlin to be done.

@n2qfd It only really gets hijacked by Bitwig, I find. I'm running a Focusrite Scarlett, generally either on the Alsa drivers (had to find some kernel code on github for them?) or just Pipewire. Note that I'm on OpenSUSE, not totally sure what the differences would be.
I also did all the "pro audio" setup that was recommended by some script that checked that the system was well-configued. Not really sure what that was, lol. · 6 months ago
I played with this too, though I didn't keep at it so I can't make any recomendations. However I have found the audio system gets hijacked on my install of Mint (20.3) also. I've had for force restart it lately and I just don't know what set up this sort of fault. Have you had any issues with that? I wasn't sure if it was the Guitarix or one of my sound card ham radio programs. · 6 months ago
