Charanga YuStudio

YuStudio is a significant addition to Charanga’s suite of teaching and learning apps for music education. As well as supporting audio recording and MIDI input, we’ve commissioned a series of high-quality loops and sounds from top musicians.

YuStudio has all the features you would expect from a Digital Audio Workstation. It’s easy to make it available to ALL of your students through our Yumu online learning space or Google Classroom – enabling you to set assignments for your students and access their work.

Compatible with most devices, including mobile, we’ve designed YuStudio for an educational setting based on five years of consultation with secondary music teachers. We believe it’s the most accessible DAW anywhere in the world today.
