Audacity is an easy-to-use, multi-track audio editor and recorder for Windows, macOS, GNU/Linux and other operating systems. More info can be found on https://www.audacityteam.org
We're currently working on Audacity 4, which means an entirely new UI and also refactorings aplenty. As such, master is currently not particularly friendly to new contributors. It still is possible to submit patches to Audacity 3.x; make sure you branch off release-3.7.x if you choose to do so. Build instructions for 3.x can be found here; build instructions for Audacity 4 are not available yet.
You can stay updated with our efforts on YouTube, discord and our blog.
Audacity is open source software licensed GPLv3. Most code files are GPLv2-or-later, with the notable exceptions being /lib-src (which contains third party libraries), as well as VST3-related code.
