I'm forwarding an email I received regarding the possible end of an
amazing free audio app: ARDOUR
I've just started using Ardour after searching for a decent multi-
track audio but having little money to spend on a 'pro' product
I am totally knocked out by this audio app -- consider it the Blender
or GIMP of audio
please help spread the word and forward this to other lists and
laptop musicians you know who might be able to help
also, I know money is tight these days but if you could possibly pitch
in 25.00 Euros/Dollars that would be great! I just did.
