Aviary, the makers of popular online image and vector editing tools has announced a new product to its lineup called Myna. Myna is a multi-track recording software akin to Garageband or Reaper. In fact the transport windows even act the same was as Garageband. It doesn’t support plugins, but it has all of the basic audio editing and multi-tracking tools one would expect from a piece of software like this like cut, paste, trim, automation and the like.

The effects section is rather slim pickings with only four slots available per track. It features the basics like phaser, flanger, ParaEQ, etc. but doesn’t appear to have a master effects channel

A test in Google Chrome with the interface is amazingly fast for a web application and was built using Flash. You can try the software for free at Aviary’s website. Overall it looks like a solid first start for a web based DAW like this and the foundation is there. Now lets just see if they can take it somewhere to begin to compete with desktop apps.
