Research direction

Start by reviewing the Arturia Midi Control Center and Elektroid links in the issue, then inspect this repository’s existing program definitions for how Windows applications are packaged as bottles. Confirm what MCC functionality is needed for firmware updates and verify that the resulting bottle can support that use case.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently there is no easy way on Linux to get Arturia Midi Control Center(MCC) working on Linux aside from a Window VM. MCC is mostly needed to update the firmware of some Arturia controller and synth like the microfreak

For that reason it would be great to have it packaged as a bottle.

That said. The ask is not to get MCC 100% because a much better Linux native app exists for Linux called Elektroid. It supports a subset of arturia synts already for and can do 90ish percentage of what you would want to do with MCC. The only thing it doesn't support is firmware upgrades

So the ask is to have MCC package as a bottle mostly to allow firmware updates to Arturia controller and synth that use MCC for this process.
