The list of audio file formats that Ardour can understand is quite long.
|
|
It is based on the functionality offered by <dfn>libsndfile</dfn>, an excellent and
|
|
widely used software library by Australian programmer Erik de Castro Lopo.
|
|
As libsndfile's capabilities expand, so will Ardour's abilities to import
|
|
(and export) new formats. Ardour supports all common audio file formats,
|
|
including WAV, AIFF, AIFC, CAF, W64 and BWF, with all typical sample formats
|
|
(8-, 16-, 24-, 32-bit integer, floating point, and more).

For MIDI import, Ardour will read any Standard MIDI Format (SMF) file.
