Audio Developer Conference

There are surprisingly few DAWs in the music making world, especially when compared to the number of audio plugins on the market. Why is this? Could it be that all the DAWs in existence are perfect and there’s no need for another one? Perhaps there’s another reason…

In this talk we dive behind the UI/UX to take a deeper look at the technology that underpins DAWs. We’ll take a tour of some of the problems they solve, often transparently to the user, and some of the technical concepts they have to navigate in order to keep music makers in the groove.

Finally, we look at what alternatives there might be if you want to build a product that looks a bit like a DAW and why not building from scratch might save you a lot of time and money.
