==== About ====

Zrythm is a digital audio workstation designed to be featureful and
easy to use. It allows limitless automation through curves, LFOs and
envelopes, supports multiple plugin formats including LV2, VST2 and
VST3, works with multiple backends including JACK, RtAudio/RtMidi and
SDL2, assists with chord progressions via a special Chord Track and
chord pads, and can be used in multiple languages including English,
French, Portuguese, Japanese and German.

Zrythm is free software written in C using the GTK4 toolkit and can be
extended using GNU Guile.

Zrythm is currently in beta. The project format is stable and we are
working towards a v1 release.

==== Release Notes ====

This is the first beta release where the project format is stabilized.
If we discover any issue that requires breaking the project format,
Zrythm will take care to auto-upgrade older projects.

The remaining issues for v1 are mostly visual bugs and convenience
features. Most critical issues have already been resolved.

Since the project format is now stable and critical issues have been
resolved, we believe Zrythm can be used in production.
