DAW is the working title of this non-standard "Digital Audio Workstation". The intention is to make it simpler and more ergonomic to use - focus is on playability and fun.
sample-record records audio into ogg files.
Record audio samples quickly, with automatic trimming of leading silence, and autimatic triggering (through MIDI) of the sampled instrument.
If samples are recorded we need a way to play them back, using the computer keyboard or a MIDI device.
A simple MIDI looper, which can record incoming MIDI and loop it to an external unit or the internal sample player.
No tiny knobs to twist, but instead keys to hold and a mouse to drag. Hold "A" and drag the mouse up to increase the envelope "Attack" time.
Tracks which are always recording and don't differentiate between MIDI & Audio, and a setup which makes recording many takes of multiple inputs simple.
