Rick,

   Cubase SX under Wine on Linux with the sound actually being handled

by Alsa? That would be quite an accomplishment! ;-)
   Pro Tools isn't possible as thee is no Linux driver to talk to the

hardware. From the links below it looks like no one has tried Cubase SX

yet.

The crossover stuff is pretty interesting, but I have another issue

which is physically it doesn't make sense for me to run everything I use

on the same PC. I have too many cards and too many Windows apps that are

version specific. Since I have to have multiple machine, I have no

issues with one or more of them being Windows.
Once I got my mind into this place the world got easier. I (almost)

don't care what the $$$ cost is. I just want to use the apps that are

best for me, and I'll do it in whatever native environment they were

designed for. 
For instance, I do all email on Linux, but I do almost all my multimedia

web browsing in Windows. Why? Because Linux provides natural shields

from all the email virus nonsense that's out there and none of the Linux

distributions provide a plug and play multimedia experience in either

the audio or video domains. (Windows ain't prefect either - I don't get

to play *.ogg files...) ;-)
Anyway, I don't feel that my 'freedom' is being taken away by using a

Windows app, whether it's in Windows or under Wine. It has become a

choice, and I try to use what's best and makes my life easy and

productive.
With best regards,

Mark
