    Anvil Studio is a multitrack MIDI and audio editing, digital audio workstation program that runs on Microsoft Windows. It is developed by Willow Software, based in Shoreline, Washington, U.S.A.

    Software overview

    [edit | edit source]

    Anvil Studio consists of a free core program with optional add-ons. The free version is a fully functional MIDI editor/sequencer which loads and saves standard MIDI-formatted files, and allows individual tracks to be edited with a:

    • Staff editor,
    • Piano Roll editor,
    • Percussion editor,
    • TAB editor, or
    • MIDI event list editor.[2]

    The program uses the standard MIDI Sequencer-Specific event (FF 7F) to control items not specifically defined by the MIDI standard, such as:

    • the font to use when rendering lyrics,
    • the position of notes or staff notation,
    • links to Pulse-code modulation formatted audio files for audio tracks.[2]

    By default, Anvil Studio uses a General MIDI software synthesizer for playback, but also allows tracks to be assigned to VST instrument[2] or external MIDI devices. It processes audio using Core Audio, ASIO, DirectX or WDM or enabled drivers.[2]

    System requirements

    [edit | edit source]

    Anvil Studio runs on Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10/11 (32-bit or 64-bit versions).[2]

    Anvil Studio is recommended by librarians for displaying sheet music for widely available free classical music files.[15] It is used in library-hosted computer clubs for promoting 21st century literacy skills.[16][17][18]
