I just finished building a semi-stable working environment made up of:

Linux:
   - jackd
   - patchage (to visualize and manage the connection graph)
   - jkmeter, gmidimonitor
   - non-session-manager (and the ever essential JACKPatch, without
which I would have given up on linux audio)
   - ardour3 for all live recordings and all mixing -- just starting to
be able to see it as stable replacement for Sonar X1. I miss some things
for sure and had to fall back to X1 a few times for a paid job with a
deadline, but ... it's almost there and high time for me to contribute
some $$.

Windows:
   - loopbe30 (virtual midi ports)
   - jackd
   - Plogue Bidule (vst host and connection routing manager)
   - Various software instruments e.g., EastWest, Vienna Instruments,
Garritan etc.
   - Notion4 (notation software)

   The rest are becoming obsolete:
   - Vienna Ensemble Pro 5 (very impressive piece of software)
   - Sonar X1

I've had success using wine and/or vsthost for many of my windows VSTs
but the major deal breakers were always eastwest and vienna because they
require a dongle so I just manage all windows stuff in windows and route
everything using jackd(net).
