# Ardour Tutorial This is a crash course into [Ardour](https://ardour.org), a free/libre digital audio workstation. The content was originally written around in 2009 during a Book Sprint led by Derek Holzer for [FLOSS Manuals](http://archive.flossmanuals.net/ardour/). It was later updated by multiple contributors and maintained by Bruno Ruviaro. All credits are on the [Credits](https://prokoudine.github.io/ardour-tutorial/en/appendices/credits/) page. This updated version is technically a port from Jekyll to Hugo and content-wise mostly an update to match many changes between Ardour v4/v6 and v7.0 plus some new material. The intention is to make it the official Ardour tutorial for beginners and maintain it as part of the upstream project.
