SLab is a software suite for digital audio recording found on UNIX platforms. This recording application is currently supported on most versions of Linux and FreeBSD. SLab is designed as a multitrack hard drive recording application, including a set of tools that help record music to a disk on a PC platform. To run this application, one simply needs to have a reasonable PC with a soundcard. However, soundcard support is limited, and track counts are limited by CPU/disk performance.

SLab is pronounced either "slab" as a single word, or "ess-lab," depending on your preference. Unfortunately, many of the groovier names are already in use, which is why "Yet Another Audio Recording Tool" would perhaps be a fitting name. However, despite there being many alternatives, SLab sets itself apart with its feature set and functionality.

The software suite consists of a mixing desk, a tape deck, a wave editor, and several other auxiliary tools, including digital effects processing. With SLab, you can record up to eight channels of music simultaneously, with the possibility of more in future versions. Overall, SLab is a reliable, versatile, and practical audio recording software suite that is perfect for anyone looking to record music and audio on a UNIX platform.
