前言
大部分宿主只支持Windows和Mac平台, 但是也有少部分人存在用Linux平台制作音乐的需求
以下几款宿主支持Windows、MAC和Linux三大平台, 并且是完全免费的
Audacity
I’ll start off with Audacity, a free open-source audio editor. Audacity has been around for many years and is very popular, with a loyal base of users. It’s primarily an audio editor, providing audio recording, editing and processing, including a number of advanced processing tools like audio repair and time/pitch shift. However, Audacity is different than most of the DAWs in this survey in two major ways. First off, there’s no MIDI to speak of—while you can have MIDI Note tracks, there are no virtual instruments or any of the usual MIDI capabilities like quantization. And the second difference is that all editing and processing in Audacity is destructive—tweaks made to the audio permanently change the original files.
This can make for a very different workflow for basic audio editing than with other DAWs, and the lack of realtime plug-ins and instruments makes Audacity very limited for music and mixing applications. Still, it’s an excellent tool for recording and editing voice and dialog, like for podcasts; simple musical projects, like singer-songwriter demos, and mastering finished mixes. There’s an active online community, and the program is stable and easy to work in, as long as you’re comfortable with its limits.

Tracktion T7
For a while Tracktion was distributed by Mackie, but currently it’s in the hands of its original developer. Tracktion T7 is the current version of this audio/MIDI production DAW. It offers a single-window design, with full recording and editing capabilities for audio and MIDI, and included plug-ins as well as compatibility with AU and VST plug-in formats. Advanced features include time-shifting and Clip effects—the latter is an option to apply effects to individual audio Clips, as an alternative to track-based mix processing (similar to Pro Tools’ AudioSuite processing). While it may not be as well-known as some of the other entries in this survey, Tracktion is a worthy inclusion to any free-DAW list.
