Ardour Nightly Builds

There is no support whatsoever for these builds.
See ardour.org for official releases.

!!! ATTENTION !!!

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THESE VERSIONS TO USE ON ACTUAL SESSIONS.
The main branch of Ardour, which is used to build the versions available on this site, has entered a development phase that makes it unsuitable for actual work.

We have tagged it as a new version (7.0-pre0), and a warning will be displayed any time you use it. These versions (or your own self-builds of the main branch) should be considered experimental, unstable and untested. We are not interested in bug reports at this time. A notice will be posted here when the situation changes.

These are automatic builds of the Ardour Digital Audio Workstation (latest git developer version) intended for testing only. They are created every 24 hours, usually in the early morning UTC but the actual time varies. See Ardour Git Log for recent changes.

Full-featured (non-free) versions are provided as service to subscribers. Use your ardour.org credentials to identify yourself for download.

xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine ~/Downloads/Ardour-*.dmg

♭ Free/Demo (gratis) Version - fully featured except it will periodically go silent. Builds without that restriction are available to subscribers.

♯ Debug Version - Includes debug-symbols suitable for creating proper bug-reports (GNU/Linux, Windows: gdb backtrace; OSX: crash reports; Note: the Windows installer includes gdb). See Debugging Ardour for more information.
