Choosing a free DAW for your music studio is not an easy task. The digital audio workstation is the most important part of your music production workspace. Your DAW software is where all the audio recording, audio editing, and mixing takes place. It is also where all your VST plugins will be put to good use.

There are plenty of commercial digital audio workstations on the market. Everyone has heard of Ableton Live, FL Studio, Studio One, and similar popular DAW applications. However, the options are limited if you’re building a music studio on a tight budget. There only a few high-quality freeware DAWs out there, but the list grows bigger every year.

You will find bits of every popular genre including: EDM / Melbourne Bounce / Psytrance / Deep House / Dubstep / Future House / Tropical House.

Free DAW: The Best Digital Audio Workstations

Our favorite free DAW applications are Tracktion 7 and Cakewalk. Other ones worth noting are Studio One Prime, Podium Free, and LMMS. We included mini-reviews of each free digital audio workstation and an overview of their pros and cons. Please note that the software is listed in no particular order. Every user has different demands, and it is impossible to say which digital audio workstation is the best. Take a good look at the free DAWs mentioned in the article and decide which one is the best fit for you.

Tracktion 7

Pros: VST and ReWire support, fully functional free DAW, low upgrade price.
Cons: No updates, unconventional workflow.
Platforms: Windows, Mac OS, Linux.

Tracktion 7 is a feature-packed free DAW. Available across all major platforms, offering full VST plugin support and ReWire compatibility, it is a powerful digital audio workstation. This DAW can even load video files, in case you need to synchronize your audio project to a movie scene or an animation. So, where’s the catch? How is something this good so… free?

The answer lies in the fact that this is is an older version of Tracktion which won’t be updated in the future. The developers won’t improve it with any new features or bugfixes. If you want more features, you will need to purchase the commercial version of Tracktion which is now called Waveform. The second drawback is Tracktion 7’s single-panel user interface which differs from the standard set by other digital audio workstations. Of course, some users absolutely love Tracktion’s unique workflow. Newcomers probably won’t have any issues with it, whereas people who are switching from a different DAW might find it a bit confusing at first.

Back to the good stuff, Tracktion 7 comes with an in-depth user manual that explains everything you need to know about this free DAW. And if you don’t care much for reading manuals, be sure to check out the training videos that are available on Tracktion’s official website. The tutorial videos cover all important topics from basic setup and plugin installation to advanced audio editing and automation.

Cakewalk by BandLab

Pros: SONAR Platinum for free, what more can you ask for?
Cons: Requires installation of BandLab Assistant.
Platform: Windows (64-bit only).

Cakewalk by BandLab is, essentially, SONAR Platinum without the bundled third-party software. And it is now a free DAW for all Windows users. Yes, you read that right, everyone can now use the flagship version of SONAR for free. It comes with all the core features of the original SONAR digital audio workstation, including its fantastic native effects (limiters, equalizers, compressors, etc.), analog console-style virtual mixer, VST plugin support, multi-touch support, Bluetooth MIDI, and more.

On the negative side, you will need to install the BandLab Assistant software first and also sign up for a free BandLab user account. But there are no nagging ads or other annoyances to worry about. The software is fast, reliable, and ready to use on your Windows machine. It is still being developed by some of the leading members of the SONAR development team. Users who want the closest thing to a classic digital audio workstation should choose Cakewalk by BandLab as their free DAW.

Podium Free

Pros: VST plugin support, intuitive user interface, fast workflow.
Cons: Single core processing for VST plugins, no ReWire support.
Platform: Windows.

Podium Free is a long-time favorite of ours, a powerful free digital audio workstation that combines a modern user interface with a fast workflow. Podium was built with electronic musicians in mind, focusing on virtual instruments as the primary sound source. That said, this free DAW can also be used for recording and mixing real instruments.

The free version of Podium offers decent VST plugin support (not limited to a certain amount of VST plugins per project) and a robust object-based project structure with a virtual mixer. It comes with powerful audio recording and editing tools, track freeze/bounce, and external MIDI controller support. Podium Free features the same customizable user interface like the one found in the full version of the product.

The main limitation of Podium Free is that it doesn’t provide multi-core CPU support. If you use a quad-core processor, only one of the four available CPU cores will be used for processing plugins. You’ll need to keep a close eye on the CPU performance indicator and be sure to use less demanding plugins in your projects. Track freezing and bouncing can also help to reduce the overall CPU load. It’s worth noting, though, that the remaining CPU cores are still used for various background tasks (rendering, disk streaming, etc.).

Studio One 3 Prime

Pros: Great user interface, external SoundFont support, quality native effects.
Cons: No VST plugin support, only one virtual instrument included.
Platforms: Windows, Mac OS.

Studio One Prime, unlike the two aforementioned digital audio workstations, doesn’t offer VST plugin support. That is a huge drawback for users who rely on using virtual instruments or a specific arsenal of virtual effects in VST plugin format. On the other hand, Studio One Prime does include a collection of native virtual effects developed by Presonus. Also included is a 1.5 GB collection of royalty-free sounds and the ability to load third-party SoundFonts. This free DAW also offers unlimited audio tracks and mixer channels, time-stretching, multi-track comping, full MIDI support, advanced automation, and Studio One’s simple side-chain routing workflow.

The lack of VST plugin support is a major drawback, but Studio One’s native effects are some of the best around. The free version includes nine effects in total, covering all of the most important mixing tools. It includes a 3-band equalizer, a compressor, a simple distortion module, a guitar amplifier, reverb and delay effects, and a set of modulation tools.

Studio One Prime is perfect for singer-songwriters or bands who want to record and mix their demo sessions. It is an entry-level free DAW that can be upgraded to Studio One Artist (with more native effects) and Studio One Professional (with plugin support and a range of other additional features). Studio One Prime’s small memory footprint also makes it an excellent choice for a lightweight digital audio workstation to use on a laptop or another computer that’s not a part of your main studio setup.

Pro Tools First

Pros: AAX plugin support, includes Xpand!2 instrument and over 20 native effects.
Cons: Only three projects can be stored, network connection required, CPU hog.
Platforms: Windows, Mac OS.

Pro Tools First shares a large number of features with the full version of Avid’s flagship digital audio workstation. The free version of Pro Tools includes AAX plugin support, Elastic Time and Elastic Pitch functionality, powerful recording, editing and mixing tools, a line-up of over 20 native effects and even the full version of the excellent Xpand!2 synthesizer. Sounds too good to be true? The catch is that only up to three projects can be stored at the same time.

If we put the cloud storage space limitation aside, the free version of Pro Tools is indeed a very capable DAW. It includes powerful virtual instruments, a wide range of effects, ReWire support, time and pitch stretching, track comping, track bouncing, etc. In short, Pro Tools First is a competent free DAW for recording and mixing audio.

On the negative side of things, Pro Tools First requires a lot of hard drive space, which can be a problem for users with limited storage space. Besides, our general impression during testing was that free version Pro Tools is quite a CPU hog, although this may depend on your hardware setup.

LMMS

Pros: VST plugin support, includes ZynAddSubFX, open source.
Cons: Some stability issues, relatively steep learning curve, no audio recording.
Platforms: Windows, Mac OS, Linux.

LMMS (short for Linux Multimedia Studio) is an open source pattern-based free DAW that was built by a team of volunteers. Its design and workflow are inspired by a commercial product – the well known FL Studio (formerly known as Fruity Loops) digital audio workstation by Image-Line.

FL Studio’s pattern-based workflow is nicely implemented in LMMS. The problem is that the user interface is still somewhat lacking in polish, making the user experience a bit underwhelming at first. The graphical elements are not very intuitively designed, and new users will probably need some time to get familiar with the application and its features. The design keeps improving with every new version of LMMS, though, therefore it makes sense to keep the program updated to the latest version at all times. Also, there are plenty of free video tutorials available online to help with the learning process.

LMMS is packed with a large number of built-in effects and virtual instruments, including the ZynAddSubFX synthesizer which is one of the most versatile freeware instruments around. This freeware DAW can also host VST plugins and connect to other applications via the JACK Audio Server. The built-in beat/bassline editor is great, and the piano roll works really well for creating and editing more complex MIDI sequences. Sadly, LMMS can’t record audio (!), so it is only possible to generate sound using virtual instruments or use imported samples. Even so, LMMS is a decent choice for electronic music producers, beat makers, and anyone who relies exclusively on virtual instruments and samples to create music.

Free DAW: Honorable Mentions

GarageBand is the first free DAW used by many music producers. It is included with all Mac computers and designed to be intuitive and easy to use. GarageBand comes with a decent collection of virtual instruments and sounds, but users who want a more advanced digital audio workstation should look elsewhere.

Music Maker by Magix is a free DAW for absolute beginners. In terms of its features and functionality, the software is a GarageBand equivalent on Windows. It comes with a small selection of virtual instruments and effects packed in a streamlined user interface that is easy to learn. The software is a good starting point for musicians who want to learn how to produce music on a computer, but nothing more than that. For any advanced functionality, take a look at the other free digital audio workstations featured in the article.

REAPER is NOT free to use, but it is free to try, and the asking price of $60 for a discounted license is more than fair, considering the program’s flexibility and the fact that it’s constantly updated with new features and improvements. REAPER is an incredibly powerful and versatile digital audio workstation that supports all major plugin formats, comes with a vast collection of high-quality effects for processing audio and MIDI data, features powerful audio and MIDI routing capabilities, and has a very active user community. An in-depth review of REAPER was recently published by ExtremRaym.

Ardour is a free DAW for Linux and an almost free digital audio workstation for Mac OS and (as of lately) Windows. With a minimum donation of $1, Mac OS and Windows users get the current version of the software and all minor updates, whereas a monthly subscription of $1, $4 or $10 also includes the major updates. The free trial version will go silent after ten minutes of use. Feature-wise, Ardour is a very capable digital audio workstation with support for all major plugin formats and a wide range of audio editing and mixing features.

KRISTAL Audio Engine is an old digital audio workstation that is no longer updated. The program was developed by KristalLabs, a team of programmers that later worked on creating Studio One. Unlike the free version of Studio One, KRISTAL Audio Engine offers basic VST plugin support with two plugin slots per channel and three plugin slots on the master bus. This is an old DAW, but it can still be useful for users with less powerful computers

What Is The Best Free DAW?

Download Midi Full Gratis 2018 En

The best free DAWs are Tracktion 7 and Cakewalk. Both are powerful digital audio workstations with all the necessary features for music production. They offer audio recording, audio editing, automation, mixing, and VST plugin support. Tracktion 7 has an unusual workflow, so chances are that new users will be more familiar with Cakewalk’s user interface.

If third-party virtual instruments and VST plugins are not crucial to your workflow, Studio One Prime and Pro Tools First are the two free DAWs you should focus on. Studio One Prime is a great package for recording audio and performing all of the standard audio mixing tasks. Pro Tools First can be expanded with AAX plugins, but it can only save three projects and requires an active network connection.

Beat makers and less demanding electronic musicians might find LMMS to be an excellent free alternative to FL Studio. It is not nearly as polished and feature-packed as the flagship DAW developed by Image-Line, but their workflows are somewhat similar.

We hope that our round-up has helped you find the perfect free DAW for your software-based studio. The final choice of the digital audio workstation is yours to make because it depends on your needs as the user and the type of hardware that you have at your disposal.
