Meadowlark is a (currently incomplete) project that aims to be a FREE and open-source DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) for Linux, Mac and Windows. Its goals are to be a powerful recording, composing, editing, sound designing, mixing, and mastering tool for artists around the world, while also being intuitive and customizable.
This project is still in the early stages of development and is not ready for any kind of production use or even any alpha/beta testing. Also the main
branch may fail to build while the bulk of development is happening in the dev
branch. Please see below on how you can get involved to help us develop this project!
