Bug ID: 36472
           Summary: Application ArdourXchange will not run in Wine
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: msvcp
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]

I'm the developer of a Windows utility called ArdourXchange. It's used with an
application called Mixbus which is a popular DAW, available for Linux, OS-X and
Windows. On OS-X we package ArdourXchange with something called WineBottler.
The Windows and OS-X versions work just fine. AxC was built with Visual C++ 6.0
and it uses MFC. Either of those facts may or may not be significant.

ArdourXchange used to run perfectly in Linux / Wine (this was a long time ago -
back around ver 0.9.8 ). But since Wine went to ver 1.x, ArdourXchange has
never worked with it. However, many users report success of they swap out 2
specific DLLs (MSVCP60.dll and MSVCRT.dll). If users replace the Wine versions
and use the official Microsoft versions, AxC springs back to life again.
Unfortunately, this solution doesn't work for everyone. At my end, I don't use
Linux at all so I can't help much, except to pass on information. HOWEVER...  I
could provide free copies of ArdourXchange (and Mixbus, if needed).

According to a very recent report (only this morning) it was tested a few days
ago against Wine v1.6.2, which I believe is a very recent version.

This morning I added an entry to the AppDB at WineHQ (although it pretty much
says the same as this description). I can be contacted here, if anyone needs a
copy of the software for testing:-
