Zrythm
Libre digital audio workstation
Zrythm is a digital audio workstation (DAW) that enables musicians and producers to create professional-quality music. Built with modern C++ using Qt/QML and JUCE, it targets electronic music workflows with advanced capabilities such as signal-based modulation and clip looping that proprietary tools have long monopolized. Building on lessons learned from the v1 release, this grant accelerates development toward Zrythm v2, porting core functionality to the new Qt/QML stack: audio and MIDI recording, arranger editing, and chord assistance. The goal is a stable, mature alternative to proprietary DAWs that guarantees users the freedom to study, modify, and share their creative tools.
