Bard Studio by sparkfist

Music creation for game makerswithout the noise

Bard Studio is a DAW-lite built for composers, sound designers, and indie developers who want to make game music that works, without drowning in complexity.

A DAW made for games, not studios

Traditional DAWs are powerful — but they're also deep, complex, and built for audio professionals. Bard Studio gives you just the tools you actually need for game music:

  • Create music loops that fit your game
  • Easily preview how your tracks adapt in-engine
  • Intuitive tools for structure and layering

No plugins, no confusing routing, no clutter.
