    <p>Ardour is a multichannel hard disk recorder (HDR) and digital audio workstation (DAW). It can be used
    to control, record, edit and run complex audio setups. Ardour supports pro-audio interfaces through the
    ALSA project, which provides high quality, well designed device drivers and API&apos;s for audio I/O
    under Linux. Any interface supported by ALSA can be used with Ardour. This includes the all-digital 26
    channel RME Hammerfall, the Midiman Delta 1010 and many others. Ardour has support for 24 bit samples
    using floating point internally, non-linear editing with unlimited undo, a user-configurable mixer, MTC
    master/slave capabilities, MIDI hardware control surface compatibility. It supports MIDI Machine Control,
    and so can be controlled from any MMC controller and many modern digital mixers. Ardour contains a powerful
    multitrack audio editor/arranger that is completely non-destructive and capable of all standard non-linear
    editing operations (insert, replace, delete, move, trim, select, cut/copy/paste). The editor has unlimited
    undo/redo capabilities and can save independent &quot;versions&quot; of a track or an entire piece Ardour&apos;s
    editor supports the community-developed LADSPA plugin standard. Arbitrary chains of plugins can be attached
    to any portion of a track. Every mixer strip can have any number of inputs and outputs, not just mono,
    stereo or 5.1. An N-way panner is included, with support for various panning models. Pre- and post-fader
    sends exist, each with their own gain and pan controls. Every mixer strip acts as its own bus, and thus
    the bus count in Ardour is unlimited. You can submix any number of strips into another strip. Ardour&apos;s
    channel capacity is limited only by the number on your audio interface and the ability of your disk subsystem
    to stream the data back and forth. JACK (the JACK Audio Connection Kit) is used for all audio I/O, permitting
    data to be exchanged in perfect samplesync with other applications and/or hardware audio interfaces.
    Ardour is sample rate and size neutral - any hardware formats from 8 to 32 bits, and rates from 8kHz
    to 192kHz. Internal processing in 32/64 bit IEEE floating point format. Further information can be found
    at &lt;https://ardour.org/&gt;.</p>
