Someone Open Sourced Logic Pro!
Things we can learn from the video
Press to jump
- 0:19Pro Wave's repository describes a Rust-built workstation with a look and workflow modeled on Logic Pro.
- 1:30The instruments produce basic sine waves, which Game identifies as placeholders rather than finished sounds.
- 2:29Project playback does nothing in his test, and click-and-drag highlighting is not functioning.
- 4:47Testing the mixer effects reveals that the compressor actively processes sound.
The compressor works. The playback doesn't. Busy Works Beats' most-watched new upload finds a revealing gap between a familiar-looking music workstation and software ready to make a track.
In "Someone Open Sourced Logic Pro!", Game tests Pro Wave, an independently coded, open-source project modeled on Apple's Logic interface, not an open-source release of Apple's software. He opens its Rust repository, tries keyboard sounds and adds a MIDI instrument track. Basic sine waves stand in for finished instruments, while even click-and-drag highlighting proves elusive. Then a mixer test produces a small but tangible success: the compressor processes the sound.
The upload has drawn about 30,000 views. Beneath it, viewers discuss native Linux support, moving between Mac and PC, and whether familiar project files could eventually work in these alternatives. Others see the appeal less as a finished replacement than as something they can customize.
That distinction runs through a fifteen-upload week. Lemon Studio returns in "They Updated Open Source \"FL Studio\"" and "He Just Made FL Studio, but better...", while "How to Make Plugins with AI" brings the software-building theme down to individual audio tools. Those last two uploads, alongside "NEW Open Source FL Studio!", carry the channel's strongest daily viewing momentum.
Busy Works Beats added 10,000 subscribers over the week, while daily views are close to their usual level. Among nearby production channels, ANDREW HUANG and Servida Music are both seeing busier-than-usual days. Here, the week's distinctive pleasure is watching Game test what these ambitious remakes can actually do, one keyboard sound and mixer control at a time.

What I love about those tools is that they can run on Linux natively
@Amora_MomentoSee it on YouTubeIt's more of like a "Here, take it and tweak it to your liking"
@DjaySoFlyMusicSee it on YouTubei just want to record with this. I'm tired of swapping between my mac and my PC. I'm DL'n this as soon as i get off work!

Thanks a lot for putting this on my radar :-) Definitely interesting!
@ne0ne0See it on YouTubeThanks for covering this. I like your perspective on cloning DAWs as open source projects. We'll see where this movement takes us.
@ralo78See it on YouTubeI cant wait to get stuck into helping out with this!
@mootzartdevSee it on YouTubeIf someone makes it so it can open logic pro project files mannnnnn
