From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Pipewire exposes both a JACK and Pulseaudio client interface, so you don't need to run the JACK daemon anymore.

Nice! So it completely replaces jackd/qjackctl? Can it sync transports?

qjackctl will actually connect to pipewire, I use its graph window a lot to route audio when the default volume control isn't enough. But yeah it does (or can) replace jackd.

Can it sync transports?

I'm not sure, I'm not a pro audio user. Sorry!
