Ardour v8.6.0 WiN X64
WiN X64 | AudioZ Exclusive | 81.95 MB
Ardour's source code is free, but the pre-compiled, ready-to-use program is paid.
Ardour is an open source, collaborative effort of a worldwide team including musicians, programmers, and professional recording engineers. Development is transparent — anyone can watch our work as it happens. Like a good piece of vintage hardware, you can open the box and look inside. Of course, you don't have to … but one day the fact that anybody can will be useful.
8.6 is a hotfix release to correct a drawing bug that was not noticed/fixed before 8.5. It also corrects a crashing bug that can occur when using JACK2.
Ardour 8.6 is available now for Linux, Windows, and macOS. This is another "small" release without major new features, largely because our two lead developers continue to be busy with things linked to future releases.
