Frequently Asked Questions

What audio formats work best?

We've tested WAV, MP3, and AAC files extensively. WAV gives you the cleanest sound, but honestly, MP3 works fine for most home recording projects. Just avoid super compressed files if you can.

Do I need to install anything?

Nope! That was actually one of our main goals with TrackSpace - getting rid of the installation hassle. Just bookmark the page and you're good to go. Works great on my old laptop too.

Why only 4 tracks?

We started with 4 tracks to keep things simple and ensure smooth performance on most computers. It's surprising how much you can do with 4 tracks - many classic songs were recorded with even less!

What's the catch with it being free?

No catch! We built this as a passion project. There might be premium features in the future, but the core DAW will always stay free. We believe music creation shouldn't have a paywall.

From a Real User

Sarah M. - Bedroom Producer

"I've been using TrackSpace for about 3 months now. Started because my laptop couldn't handle Logic Pro anymore (too many crashes!). At first, I missed having 16+ tracks, but honestly? It forced me to be more creative. Now I layer my sounds better and make decisions instead of just adding more tracks.

The browser thing was weird at first - kept expecting it to crash or lose my work. But it's been rock solid. I even used it on my friend's computer when we were jamming last weekend. No installing, no setup drama, just opened Chrome and we were making beats.

Pro tip I discovered: Load your drums on Track 1, bass on Track 2, then use Tracks 3&4 for everything else. The EQ on the bass track is surprisingly good - way better than some plugins I've paid for."
