Could you build this?
No A digital audio workstation (DAW) requires low-latency real-time DSP, VST/AU audio plugin hosting, cross-platform audio driver architecture (CoreAudio/ASIO), and complex C++ multi-threaded real-time constraints that vibe coding cannot produce.
What it would actually take: Building a functional DAW requires C++ or Rust using frameworks like JUCE or native CoreAudio/ASIO APIs, implementing a real-time lock-free audio graph and sample-accurate scheduling. Integrating VST3/AU hosting and neural network inference (Neural Amp Modeler via RTNeural or LibTorch) demands deep expertise in digital signal processing and real-time audio safety. A dedicated team of senior audio software engineers and DSP specialists is necessary.
