How to make Wavosaur work on Linux ?
1) make sure you have Wine :
open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install wine
2) download the Wavosaur Windows executable :
it’s in the zip ! => http://www.wavosaur.com/download.php
3) get the right version of MFC42.dll :
http://www.dlldump.com/download-dll-files_new.php/dllfiles/M/mfc42.dll/6.0.400/download.html
and place the mfc42.dll file next to the Wavosaur executable
4) now launch Wavosaur with Wine !
5) Here is Wavosaur on Linux :
Many VST plugins are working too in this environment, as you can see on the first picture.
Yeah!
I just checked Wavosaur 1.1.0.0-32bit on Mint 13 XFCE with WIne 1.4 and it still works, not that I had any serious doubts. Thanks for the new release. 😉
This is still interesting news for me (reading it nearly 3 years later^^) as I switched to Lubuntu and will try it out now.
I got it installed on Puppy Linux with Wine (with the dll file) but the sound is all crackling on playback. I use ALSA with an external interface. I selected my audio in/outs via the audio configuration menu but i cant get clean sound.
Try PulseAudio
Also, I tried importing a wave file into Wavosaur and played that back. That’s distorted sound too. Any ideas?
