No idea how many VSTs will work with this, but means it could take advantage of real-time OS distributions that allow for unprecedented CPU stability and efficiency.
The MPC hardware devices take advantage of a real-time Linux kernel, and they are more stable than most PCs
Studio One Linux beta released ...
There should be a music Linux, specially written for DAW use. That way not everybody has to reinvent the wheel again, and development could become easy……
I personally would look forward to that, I talked about it twenty years ago, but by then nobody would listen.

I don’t think Linux offers unprecedented performance on the latest Intel chips . They are only just catching up with the hybrid architecture.
With a real-time OS you can get stability and CPU efficiency that's just not possible with a purely preemptive scheduler (for low latency high throughput code).Jackjackdaw wrote: ↑03 Oct 2023I don’t think Linux offers unprecedented performance on the latest Intel chips .

It's why the MPC doesn't feel like an Intel processor from 2009
I can't comment on how will it handles hybrid CPUs as I don't really use them.
It's definitely something that needs support in the coming years, especially when 16+ cores is standard.
There are several specialised Linux distros for pro audio (e.g. Ubuntu Studio, AV Linux, ...). Most of those are just special configurations or extending the base distro with some additional repos/packages. In general any modern linux distro can be used for audio work.
