The open source digital audio workstation software Ardour has been updated to version 7.0, bringing various new features and changes.

After more than a year since Ardour 6.9, Ardour 7.0 is now available. This new release features major new features for the software, as well as substantial (even if largely invisible) internal engineering changes. We are happy to bring “clip launching” functionality into Ardour for the first time, along with many other significant improvements, including lots of enhancements for MIDI editing ….

This release also sees the addition of official builds for Apple Silicon systems (previously available only via the nightly build site). It is also the end of 32 bit builds for Ardour for all platforms as part of the official download site. Some will remain available on the nightly site for the near-term future.

Ardour is available to download for Windows, macOS and Linux.
