Ardour 7.2 was released today with several new features, improvements and many bug fixes. It is a free, open-source, powerful, and cross-platform DAW (digital audio workstation).
The application is distributed under a GNU license General Public License and can be installed on GNU/Linux, OSX, FreeBSD, and Windows operating systems. Its lead developer is Paul Davis, who is also responsible for the tool JACK Audio Connection Kit.
Ardour 7.2 comes about a month and a half after the release of Ardor 7 to add some new essential features to the already powerful digital audio workstation software.
These include support for importing M4A audio files, a new adjustable Remove Gaps track processing function with adjustable threshold and output parameters, and the ability to display a low-level measurement of DSP processing information in the Performance Meters window.
This release also brings a customizable Slip Contents shortcut to Preferences, a new Track> Playlist menu with features for creating new playlists, support for specific CPU DMA latency values, two new MIDI editing functions (extend-selection and invert-selection) and arbitrary tracing of MIDI data for MIDI Tracer windows.
