What is DAW?

      A DAW is a short form of Digital Audio Workstation.But what's that?!Yeah,I'm telling...You know music is made using various instruments like guitar,flute,violin,drums,pianos etc.But that was ended in 1990's.Then large keyboards and mixers came that can make all of the sounds that above mentioned instrument made.Those keyboars were called audio workstation(you can see an image of audio workstation here).Then everything turned digital.So did music also!Thus workstation also went digital and named Digital Audio Workstation.Using DAW,we can create all kind of music in a computer installed with a DAW software.Sounds cool,right?
