Ardour: rewind, fast-forward, edit.
Ardour is a digital audio workstation similar in function to many well-known proprietary systems. This talk will survey Ardour's history, its features, the existing community of developers and users, and discuss future directions, including upcoming MIDI sequencing support and recent additions. I will also try to demonstrate the ways in which Ardour integrates with other tools, such as drum machines, synthesizers, and networks.
