Are you kidding me? Give up and go back to Windows!

The Linux download links are on the websites for ReaPack and SWS. I don't know how you missed them.

They go in the "UserPlugins" folder which is in the Reaper resource folder. (SWS also has some things that go in the "Scripts" and "Grooves" folders, in the Reaper resource folder.) I should hope you know how to find out which folder that is by now...but in case you don't:

Options -> Show REAPER resource path in Explorer/Finder...

Don't guess at where the folder is. Use the proper folder only.

You'll want to back up your existing ReaPack files, from ReaPack, before installing and using ReaPack in Linux. (If you had any scripts etc. you wanted to port over.) Then import them from ReaPack. The import/export feature of ReaPack is in the "manage repositories" area of ReaPack.

Reaper's own import and export configuration options don't back up ReaPack's index. So if you load Reaper without bringing your index over, ReaPack won't "know" what you have installed already.

The only community-related thing that I haven't been able to run properly in Linux is the MIDItoReaControlPath VST. And I haven't seen a Linux version of Playtime, but I can't speak for it anyway since I never used it.

The rest is all there for you...

Ha Ha! Fool that I am, I was already on my Linux box and for the life of me couldnt remember what the websites for them were, so I thought that before I faffed around getting linux stuff on my Win10 box I would check that linux versions actually exist!

I`ll admit that with all this new stuff to assimilate I feel a bit like a rabbit in car headlights right now, but I AM getting there! Thanks.

EDIT: Got them both!

And you also forgot you can right-click on a word in your browser and search with the default search engine? I don't have either site bookmarked and I found them instantly that way, with DuckDuckGo (not even Google).
