MARS is a new, cloud-based multitrack audio recording system
that can be installed locally on your computer (Mac / Windows / Linux) or deployed remotely via cloud hosting or your own website.
MARS is a professional, cross-platform multitrack audio recording system
designed for musicians and audio engineers who require portable, device-agnostic multitrack recording capability with minimal system overhead and uncompromised, studio-grade audio quality.
It is designed for efficient multitrack audio recording, editing and archiving.
Highlights
• Records uncompressed, timestamped 24-bit audio in Broadcast Wave format
• Playback support includes: WAV, PCM, MP3, MP4, FLAC, OGG, Opus, AAC, WebM, M4A
• Cross-platform, browser-native recorder deployable locally or to remote infrastructure (Mac, Windows, Linux, website, cloud)
• Precise real-time metering system designed for both close-up editing and accurate long-distance monitoring
• Unlimited Undo/Redo system, internally managed in increments of thousands of steps
• Supported bit depths and sample rates for recording/playback: 8–32 bit, 16–384 kHz
• Native sound card compatibility, including WDM and CoreAudio
• Import/export file handling via exact binary copy, no format conversions
• New, intuitively structured, high-precision waveforms
• Comprehensive editing with built-in toolbar and shortcuts
• Ultra-fast, one-click Mix Down to create reference mixes
MARS is in the late stages of development,
and we are looking for professionals and enthusiasts who require multitrack recording capability to test-drive and provide feedback on areas for improvement. We have set up an early access program at mars-audio.com, where you can register and create an account to participate.
We are developing a multitrack recorder that is designed to match and exceed the full feature set of standalone high-fidelity recorders, with the added advantages of cross-device accessibility and availability at a fraction of the cost. Additionally, since MARS does not convert audio files during import/export, it will function as a reliable archiving tool for any multitrack recording session.
Interested?

Maybe crowdfunding would be a viable option. I mean for 80 bucks more I get a premium version of Ableton, Cubase, Pro Tools...
