Tidy cats free and clean works for me. Not arm&hammer. Used to have good luck with the pine, but yeah you have to scoop the poop right away.

The fragrance one always smell like crap + flowers to me. Sometimes you might be able to find pine cobble. PetSmart had a great house brand of pine cobble litter, which they naturally stopped making.
I like the PetNF Tofu litter, but it's a bit on the expensive side. I pay around $54/month for two 12-lbs bags which can last 1+ month for my two kitties. This is because I wash my litter boxes every month though, so it really depends. This litter is bigger (like a long rice grain), smells like bread when fresh, and clumps like a champ! It covers the smell fairly well, but one of my cats is a stinky pooper so I had to get mini air purifier for the litter room. It is flushable, but I don't flush mine so I can't comment on this.
I have tried: clay litter (dusty, even Dr Elsey and Boxie), okocat wood litter (too dusty and too much tracking), feline pine pine pellets (didn't work for my cats; they preferred "softer" litter). I wanted to try the walnut and grass litter, but I decided not to since they are smaller grains and will probably have the same tracking problems like the wood litter.
I would also recommend a vacuum robot to help with tracking :)
I never heard of tofu litter! That’s super interesting to hear, and I like that it clumps as well.
Great suggestion about the robot vac!
I like the arm & hammer slide litter.
Also not what you asked but litter trash bags are great so the leftover grossness that the litter doesn’t pick up doesn’t hang on the box itself and I can just throw the bag out. Keeps the smell under control.
I am also going to say Arm & Hammer Slide.
And a robot vac set to go daily. (But schedule it for when you are home and awake. You don't want a Roomba to find cat poo on the floor before you do. Ask me how I know.)
Also, you didn't ask, but I find a Litter Genie very convenient. I don't want to go to the trash chute every time I scoop. I would not buy the liner refills though, because they're pricey! You can use a regular trash bag as a liner. I replace mine once a week for two cats. I use shipping take around the bag opening so that my cats won't eat the plastic bag that is visible to them (you can look up Litter Genie hack on Youtube).
I’ll add that so far, I’ve tried the Tidy Cats Breeze system (works fine, but I’d prefer something more inexpensive), and I’ve also tried that Breeze “hack” with pine pellets (also works fine, but the odor control isn’t great for feces imo). I’m open to suggestions on what to try next!
I use fresh step unscented litter and it’s great!
Try Okocat Less Mess (different than the one mentioned above)! I recently switched to it, and the tracking is the least I’ve seen in a natural litter (I don’t use clay). Also recommend the Litter Genie.
Lucy Pet Unscented! I can neeeeever smell any excrement. Clumps very well so scooping is easy. Low dust.
I use a modkat litter box and a half moon tracking mat. Any litter falls through the holes back into the box. Anything still on her paws or tum hits the mat.
Pine pellets! I switched a year ago and love it. Hardly tracks at all, no dust, and seems to last longer than clumping litter.
