NAME
ardour - a digital audio workstation
SYNOPSIS
ardour -b [-U file] [session]
ardour --help
DESCRIPTION
Ardour is a multichannel hard disk recorder (HDR) and digital audio
workstation (DAW). It is capable of simultaneous recording 24 or more
channels of 32 bit audio at 48kHz. Ardour is intended to function as a
"professional" HDR system, replacing dedicated hardware solutions such
as the Mackie HDR, the Tascam 2424 and more traditional tape systems
like the Alesis ADAT series. It is also intended to provide the same
or better functionality as software systems such as ProTools, Sampli-
tude, Logic Audio, Nuendo and Cubase VST (we acknowledge these and all
other names as trademarks of their respective owners). It supports
MIDI Machine Control, and so can be controlled from any MMC controller,
such as the Mackie Digital 8 Bus mixer and many other modern digital
mixers.
OPTIONS
-b Print all possible keyboard binding names.
-U Specify the path to the GTK RC file to use. The provided one is
called ardour_ui.rc and lives in the top level Ardour source
directory. This file controls all color and font use within
Ardour. Ardour will run without it, but its appearance is, uhm,
ugly.
--help Displays the help message.
