    My audio set up is using jack on Ubuntu. If I were to start using pipewire, does it replace jack? Or do you use it alongside jack? I use mostly ardour, hydrogen, renoise and bitwig.

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

          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!
