Cadence is a set of tools useful for audio production. \ |
|
|
|
It's being developed by falkTX, using Python3 and Qt5 (and some C++ where needed). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The tools share the same base source code, so most of them look quite similar (which is intentional). <br/> |
|
|
|
Also, lots of custom widgets were coded when needed (like pixmapdial, pixmapkeyboard, patchcanvas and systray). <br/> |

They can be re-used in other projects. Contact the author if you need help on that. |

It's supposed to be as simple as possible (there's Claudia for advanced things), so it can work nicely on Windows and Mac too. <br/> |
