I am a software engineer for 10 years, and have been dabbling in audio engineering / recording / mixing for the past couple of years. I haven't made the transition, but I wouldn't rule it out in the future.

I'd probably never stop coding though. It would just be a matter of switching from pro to hobby, and vice-versa.

Sonic Pi might interest you if you don’t know it already. It’s an alternative to DAWs where you use ruby code to make music

Here’s a demo https://youtu.be/KJPdbp1An2s
