Recently looking for a free DAW to try out on a windows mini PC as I haven’t had access to a non work windows computer in years, cakewalk downloads a downloader then create an account to download, waveform create an account to download. Not sure what else is our there but I think it’s going to be audacity+ffmeg since it actually has real downloads without an account.
Personally only used to record and edit vinyls when my Gentoo had a hefty memory leak (I’m talking filling up 0.5 GB per second) with its self compiled audacity, but it seems like a more professional version of audacity
Reaper. Technically not free, but you get 2 months fully-functional for free and, after the trial ends…it remains fully-functional just with a nag screen that you dismiss with one click
It doesn’t look fancy and there’s a bit of a learning curve, but it’s incredibly powerful and when you feel guilty enough to pay it’s also incredibly cheap (and a one-time purchase)

Check out LMMS, maybe. Depending on your needs.
Ardour maybe?
