The instruments in the list were tested using FstHost and/or FeSTige. Many of the synths in the list haven't yet been added to the LMMS database but should still run fine. The text file at the link below is the "old list" which I started a while back. (Wine and other associated files are available in many linux distros.) I hope to do future testing and posting updates. Once installed, make sure your plug-in host can find it.Ī while ago I helped build the LMMS Tested VST Database.
