Zrythm is an interesting open-source digital audio workstation (DAW) software package. It’s been making use of the GTK toolkit but now the developers have decided to switch to Qt6 instead.
Switching the UI framework sounds like a massive refactor.
Qt is by far the better framework. This could also be a chance to implement a super UI/UX, it could also be a complexity hell. I will have a look at the project, let’s see if the outcome wil be a better product.
Crazy! Zrythm was “the GTK DAW” for me, and Qt6 sounds like a better option? Lets see!
Any thoughts on how this compares to Tracktion? That’s been my “linux daw” but haven’t really tried any others
!!! I need to try this. Ardour has always been the only real option for me.
I can recommend trying it. Used it on my MacOS installation. Free version works great, but I felt the need for some paid features sometimes (more convenient workflow). But you can totally get job done with the free one just fine.
Sweet I need to build zrythm again, ah or maybe someone already put it in nixpkgs!!
