Tenacity is a free and open source audio editor forked from the popular audio editor Audacity. Tenacity is licensed under the GNU General Public License version 2 or later. It contains the following features:
- Recording from audio devices, real or virtual.
- Support for importing from and exporting to a wide range of audio formats, extensible with FFmpeg.
- High quality audio processing, including up to 32-bit float audio support.
- Extensibility with support for plug-ins, providing support for VST 2, LADSPA/LV2, and AU plugins.
- Support for scripting in the built-in scripting language Nyquist, or in Python, Perl, and other languages with named pipes.
- Editing arbitrary sampling and multi-track timeline.
- Accessibility including editing via keyboard, screen reader support and narration support.
- Tools useful in the analysis of signals, including audio.
Tenacity does not have a single application when it comes to audio processing. Musicians recording real instruments can make a song in Tenacity, podcasters can edit their episodes in Tenacity, and even academic researchers can analyze signals using Tenacity. We don’t intend to focus Tenacity on a single area of audio processing, but rather, we intend to focus Tenacity over audio processing in general, including the aforementioned applications.
