No A serious DAW needs a low-latency real-time audio engine, plugin hosting, and DSP expertise. An AI accompanist also needs trained generative music models. Vibe coding can produce a UI shell, but not a production-quality audio engine.
What it would actually take: Build on an audio framework such as JUCE or a native CoreAudio/WASAPI engine, with a MIDI sequencer, piano roll, mixer, and audio export. Audio timing, plugin formats (VST3/AU), and sample-accurate automation require experienced audio engineers. The AI accompanist requires either a trained music model or a serious integration with one, which is a research-level task.
