Development Diary

Work is proceeding on getting Ardour 2.0 ready to enter the "RC" (release candidate) phase. Today, I managed to fix two significant issues:

  • embedding multichannel files was broken - you would get the first (left) channel for all channels. In addition, bringing in external audio "as a track" would always create a track that appeared to be 1in/2out, even though its actual signal processing was correct.
  • the "Make mono regions" action wasn't working either. This has been fixed, and the action now applies to all selected regions.

Ardour capabilities include: multichannel recording, non-linear, non-destructive region based editing with unlimited undo/redo, full automation support, a mixer whose capabilities rival high end hardware consoles, lots of plugins to warp, shift and shape your music, and controllable from hardware control surfaces at the same time as it syncs to timecode. If you've been looking for a tool similar to ProTools, Nuendo, Cubase SX, Digital Performer, Samplitude or Sequoia, you might have found it.

I used Ardour digital sound software for the reccordings of my band: nissan 300zx mpg.

We just loved it. We reccomand it to everyone, pro's or amatures.

known bug. won't be fixed before 2.0 is released. it requires a significant change in how we handle external files. thanks for filing the report, thus ensuring that i don't forget this.

I recently installed Ardour GTK on Edgy. I did a net search for a tutorial but didn't come up with much except dead links and some hydrogen stuff. Ardour looks to be very capable but I'm in the dark on how to best use (or even access) it's features.

I have Ableton's Live 4 Lite (came with my M-Audio card) running under windows and have mostly figured it out so I have some small idea of how to use Ardour. I've made a couple test recording on it and they playback but I'm pretty hazy about what all it can do. Just a walkthrough would be most helpful.

The problem with both is that they base on QT3, and would probably require an upgrade to QT4 while such a massive upgrade is not the most motivational thing for a small team not actively working on the code, so it may be that we wont see those two anymore. Pity, cause they filed space of HOMM like and RedAlert like games pretty well.

Ardour is a digital audio workstation. You can use it to record, edit and mix multi-track audio. You can produce your own CDs, mix video soundtracks, or just experiment with new ideas about music and sound.

Its features include optional line/page numbering, multiple font support, syntax highlighting for Perl source code, and customizable headers and footers.

For me I get all updates for free. But I am not really sure with this installation, so just waiting for Ardour 2.0...

Sitting on my storage ottoman, its nice to see the chronology of all the new features for ardour.

I have a Korg D3200 but would like to check out the Ardour DAW. Problem I have with the Korg is that it is limited by the number of effects i can put on the drums. My band Smoke n' Rex is recording an CD called Sexy Lingerie which on the song - Her Lingerie - my drums sounds a little flat but i didn't have enough effects space to put reverb on all.

So, after over two and a half year since its initial release, my Project Watcher is getting a massive update.
The old version has been “released” on March 7th, 2006.
