It seems like the inspiration went from Audacity, and with great changes to the design and feel of calmness and solidity!
I've tried loading a file with XM format, yet the current state of the import logic stated "Unsupported". Is there any chance you'll support the format?
For example, the following artwork is radiating charmingly in VLC:

And, thank you! very much for the experiments, effort, miracles... art you do...
Thank you :) I 'll look into it, I am a little cautious of bloating up the filesize (right now it's at 98kb of js and 10kb of css), but if I can make something work efficiently I 'll give it a go.
On an unrelated note, I'm a little surprised there is no good open source web audio tracker (like Renoise but for the web) out there yet...
I usually use it to edit audio tracks quickly up to 10 minutes long, though I have received nice emails from people who have used for 1hr+ podcasts successfully (though certain heavy operations wouldn't be very fun to use).
For multitrack sessions, there is the ability to export to a .amss file that contains all the settings, markers, tracks etc. For single track edit... it would just crash right now. There is already a feature for caching audio tracks in indexeddb (it's under >File), but honestly it's not a web api I have found to be super reliable. I don't blame the browser developers, because I 'm sure if it was more reliable certain websites would put it to use storing gigabytes of trackers on the user's machine :). For this reason, I haven't made it auto-save the session automatically yet, trying to be a good citizen on the user's computer, maybe that will change in the future if there's a strong need for it.
I think of it like photopea/pixlr are to photoshop. Quick and easy to use, get you at 90% of the way. If somebody wants to do a serious operation, then by all means go for a paid desktop pro-daw solution :)
There is a little [ + ] button next to CHANNELS in the sidebar, it has no limit but right now so add as many as you like :)
It's using dom to render the multitrack waveform boxes currently so I would assume after a certain point it might start to slow down a bit. In the future might switch it all to be webgpu based to avoid such limits.

This is great. I need to do audio work this coming week and was dreading Audacity.
Have you tried Ardour? It's like a superset of Audacity.
when have you last tried audacity? it's been getting friendlier
How much work would it be to compile Audacity for the web?
(I'm a bit behind on web technologies nowadays)
Agreed but it’s still not a proper DAW and suffers from those limitations. It gets very rickety when you go beyond a basic stereo mix.
Is there midi support and vst support? I know that's asking for a lot =)
Getting the 2002 Cool Edit Pro 2.0 vibes!
Very nice. One feature id like to see is import of stem bundles as produced by various tools like suno or stemsplitter
Looks promisimg. Must try the next days.
Makes me think of Quatermass ...
what is the theoretical file size / project size limit? what happens when the browser crashes?

edit: reason
How can we add more tracks. is there a limit?

this is cool thanks for making it!
