What is the purpose of the Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) in EarSketch?

The purpose of the Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) in EarSketch is to manage audio clips and visualize music structure. This platform provides tools for users to create music by arranging, editing, and mixing audio samples. The DAW allows for a graphical representation of the music, making it easier to see how various clips fit together within a track, facilitating the composition process. It also enables users to manipulate audio elements and explore layered arrangements, thus enhancing their understanding of music creation.

While writing and editing code, displaying console logs, and creating and sharing sound files are important functions in some contexts, they are not the primary role of the DAW in EarSketch, which is specifically designed for audio management and visualization.
