Yes, with yabridge, it works very well for example with all the Valhalla Reverb plugins. But then there are others like FabFilter, they do not work so well. But luckily there are now native Linux FabFilter alternatives, like ToneBoosters EQ Pro, Tal EQ, ZL EQ, ...

I think you can do it with Carla if you build it with Wine libs linked.

As a FabFilter user, how do those alternatives compare? I mostly use Pro-C and Pro-Q

They _all_ offer Dynamic EQ, all the phase modes (linear, minimal and derivatives), freq matching, collision detection, side chaining, etc... Absolutely comparable imho. And cheaper. ZL Equalizer even is open source!

I'll put TB Barricade against Pro-L 2 and TB Reverb against Pro-R for sure. I mostly use other stuff for EQ and compression, but those two are really very similar to the FB offerings.
