Could you build this?
No A comprehensive digital audio workstation (DAW) requires ultra-low latency multi-track audio engines, real-time plugin hosting (VST/AU), and complex DSP routing that cannot be vibe-coded.
What it would actually take: A functional DAW requires a high-performance C++ architecture (often JUCE or native CoreAudio/ASIO) with lock-free real-time audio thread architectures, sample-accurate MIDI scheduling, and a complex multithreaded mixer graph. It requires deep DSP knowledge to build native synthesizers, effects, and audio-time-stretching algorithms without audio dropouts. Building this requires years of specialized audio software engineering.
