Yes Bitwig is simple. Getting it to work on Nix took the slim layer I made.

No layer is needed. Bitwig is Linux native.

Yes I'm glad Bitwig 6 finally hit Nixpkgs making it truly natively reproducible and easy to use.
Ableton is another beast altogether, and I've also been trying to get it running for years at this point, no end in sight. Last time I tried, after being recommended https://github.com/BEEFY-JOE/AbletonLiveOnLinux (now sadly archived), I managed to get the actual UI to render and be interactive, but still couldn't get proper audio to work with my interface, only software rendered audio, so the quest continues...
