User reviews

When I used this so many years ago, it was great. It was a great tool for beginners, and if it could still run now, it would be wonderful. Unfortunately, it's been more than three years since flash has been completely dropped. It is highly unlikely that Audiosauna will ever be updated to run off of html5, unity, or some other engine, because that's just how the world works. The creators of this app have most likely abandoned this project, which is unfortunate, and nothing against the creators, but it was not surprising. It was great while it lasted, but now, it's time to move on.

Please bring this back, or at least make it a standalone Windows program! Better yet, I'd really love the synthesisers and sampler to be VST plugins I could use in other DAWs!

Dear Audiosauna, Please bring this program back. I've actually missed it for so long, and I haven't made music the same without it. It helped me get through depression when I moved, and it helped to teach me mixing. Please. What will it take to bring it back?
