Qtractor's intention was to provide digital audio workstation software simple enough for the average home user, and yet powerful enough for the professional user. Released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, Qtractor is a free and open-source software application. ==Overview== Qtractor is a non-destructive digital audio and MIDI multi-track composition sequencer and arranger software application. It does not affect, alter or modify the audio and/or MIDI files that are displayed as Clip Objects. Exceptions are files resulting from capture and recording operations or from explicit changes made through specialized Clip editing (e.g., MIDI Editor). Qtractor was simply the hobby project of one developer. Development was started in April 2005, initially as a Qt3 application. It was updated to use Qt4 in October 2006, then Qt5 in 2015. Since September 2020, it targets Qt6. Qtractor is natively hardwired and exclusive to the JACK Audio Connection Kit infrastructure, and the ALSA sequencer for MIDI. It is a Linux-only application. ==References== Qtractor home page ==External links== Project home page
