Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

MAGDA v0.19.0

👉 Free, open-source DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) with AI-assisted music production.

MAGDA is a free, open-source digital audio workstation designed for modern music creation, recording, editing, sound design, and live production workflows. Built using the JUCE framework and the Tracktion Engine, MAGDA combines traditional DAW functionality with advanced AI-assisted workflow tools to help musicians, producers, and creators work faster and more creatively.

MAGDA features a flexible production environment with session, arrangement, and mixer views, allowing users to compose music, arrange clips, automate effects, and mix tracks using a streamlined interface. The application supports both audio and MIDI production and includes built-in instruments, modulation systems, automation lanes, plugin support, MIDI controller integration, and scripting capabilities.

One of MAGDA’s standout features is its integrated AI assistant, which allows users to control parts of the DAW using natural language commands. Users can also access an embedded DSL console for advanced workflow customization and scripting. Additional tools such as the Drum Grid, Piano Roll editor, modulation rack, FAUST-powered effects bank, and macro systems provide deep sound-shaping and performance options for electronic music production, live performance setups, and studio recording.




Features:
• Multi-view workflow with session, arrangement, and mixer layouts
• Hybrid tracks supporting both audio and MIDI content
• AI-powered assistant with natural language interaction
• Embedded DSL console for command execution and automation
• Built-in 4OSC subtractive synthesizer instrument
• Integrated Drum Grid with independent plugin chains per pad
• Piano Roll editor with velocity, pitchbend, and MIDI CC editing
• Advanced automation modes including Write, Touch, and Latch
• Modulation system with LFOs, macros, curve shapers, and modulators
• FAUST integration with built-in effects processing bank
• Plugin scanning and plugin management support
• Rack-based workflow for reusable instrument and effect chains
• MIDI Learn support for rapid hardware controller mapping
• Lua scripting support for two-way DAW protocols and customization
• Session recording and clip launching workflow tools
• Mixer controls for routing, effects, levels, and track management
• Clip follow actions for dynamic arrangement playback
• Audio waveform editing and transient detection tools
• Preset management and reusable workflow templates
• Open-source architecture designed for extensibility and experimentation
