From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Linux-compatibility for RØDE Wireless Pro software? (feddit.org)

Hey guys,

I recently bought some "RØDE Wireless Pro"-microphones for better audio-quality and it seems, that their software "RØDE Central" (which is needed for some stuff) is only available for Windows.

For now, I helped myself with creating a virtual machine (running Windows 10) which works good, but I think, that this solution is unacceptable for a device which costs ~300€.

My fault to not check it before, but unfortunately it's too late for a return. I have hopes, that some skilled linux-gods found a practical solution for this. Using Debian btw.

you can use WinBoat to make it feel native and natural. besides that, there really isn't much to do..

Good luck!

Thanks, I will try it!

Hopefully Linux gets relevant enough, so that even the last company feels the need to provide a proper linux installer.

WinBoat is just a Windows VM. So it will work but you won't be able to connect it to anything that's not also in that VM. Might as well just dual boot Windows.
