Muse Sounds Manager update for Linux users

• Dic. 5, 2024 - 18:38

Hi everyone,

We're pleased to announce that an updated version of Muse Sounds Manager is now available for x86_64 Linux users on the Download page.

Muse Sounds Manager was created based on feedback from the Linux community. It runs without a background process and only prompts for administrator privileges when required to complete a specific task.

New features in this version:

  • Added support for Muse Drumline
  • Updates to all existing Muse Sounds
  • Removed P2P community acceleration
  • Released new unpackaged TAR variant for non-DEB/RPM distros

Thank you for your patience while finalized this update. We hope you enjoy the new sounds and library updates, and can't wait to hear the music you create!

Please note, Muse Sounds Manager is only available for x68_64 Linux systems. On Windows and macOS, its functionality is provided by MuseHub.

Thank you! Linux support is often overlooked and undervalued, so this is incredible news! I wasn't sure it was actually coming to Linux, but I am happy that it has.

For MuseFX to work, vst3 support must be implemented first. For this, we are waiting for a volunteer (this can easily be 'never'). Of course, MuseFX Linux vst3's must be available as well.
For the paid Muse Sounds, Muse Sounds Manager must be capable of handling the payments and DRM.
Given the fact that we had to wait for an updated Muse Sounds Manager - that has no new functionality - for 4 months, this does not look promising.
It has never been planned AFAICS (as confirmed on Discord Aug. 14th: 'the commercial libraries are not coming to linux').
This is clearly a management decision (see Muse Guitars 2, not available neither)
Probably they think there is no money in it.

You can try my lxvst build: https://musescore.org/en/node/351813
Only works with native linux vst's build with JUCE, and Windows vst's with wine.
CLAP may be open source and cross platform, but major sample library vendors do not support it (nor do they support Linux, evidently). What good would CLAP support do for Linux MS users (and Windows/Mac users)? Any FX one would want is available either as native Linux Juce VST (open source or not) or Windows vst. Sample libraries are not available at all. (isn't there a GPL license for the VST3 SDK's?)
Anyway, we are waiting for a volunteer to implement CLAP as well: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/16805
Edit: Muse Sounds are not VST's, but completely proprietary.

I'll try install MuseHub and MuseScore there instead . Good luck. Let us know how it goes.
