Is Pipewire ready for your studio? Eh, maybe not yet! The Jack Audio Connection Kit still outperforms Pipewire at 64 samples buffer 44.1khz. This is roughly a 1.5 millisecond block latency, and represents about 3 milliseconds of round-trip latency. For live performance, or studios that rely heavily on midi input + software monitoring, I would personally stick with the realtime kernel, low latency tweaks, and jack audio connection kit. For hobbyists that would like to connect audio and midi devices with ease, Pipewire may be the better choice. In fact, it now comes standard with many Linux distributions. The addition of the pipewire-jack package and a patcher such as Carla make it a pretty stress-free setup for most. Some fine-tuned configuration will likely be necessary for decent latency when recording audio though, as pipewire defaults to 1024 samples (24 ms block latency, 48 ms round-trip).
