Could you build this?
No A credible DAW requires a real-time audio engine, DSP, plugin hosting, and low-latency audio driver handling. Those are specialized skills, and the scope is far beyond what vibe coding alone delivers.
What it would actually take: Building it means C++20 with JUCE, a real-time audio thread with lock-free design, a timeline and editing engine, MIDI and audio I/O on Windows (WASAPI/ASIO), VST3 plugin hosting, and a mixing/DSP library. It takes deep audio-programming expertise and years of testing across hardware and plugins.
