Regarding DJing, there is support now for quite a few MIDI DJ controllers in Linux, you should look and see if yours is supported ๐.
Doubtful. It hasn't received neither a driver nor a firmware update since 2015, and new DJ hardware is expensive, so...
Ummm... those are exactly the kind of devices that actually DO work in Linux ๐. Legacy hardware support is one of the things that Linux is know for.
Even if it never worked in Linux before? I'll have to check it out. It would be nice to be able to use the latest version of Serato DJ without having to buy new hardware. (SDJ works in WINE, right? Is WINE even still a thing or have we evolved beyond that?)
Serato DJ should work in Wine fine. Wine is more active as a project now than it ever was, thanks to Valve's Proton, which is bascially a Wine fork aimed at gaming on Linux through Steam. But, they push changes upstream (the Wine project), so Wine is really going fast forward now, they're up to version 8.something now, which is a big jump, considering it was at version 5 only a few years ago and that the project has been around for about 2 decades.
Regarding DJ controllers and Wine... that might be a bit tricky, but it's worth a shot ๐คท. Might require some manual library overrides or setups, but if the controller is supported in Linux (works fine with, let's say, Mixxx or Transitions DJ), it should be able to work in Wine as well.
