Ardour is audio hardware independant since it uses jack and therefore supports a wide variety of hardware. Also this means that Ardour will run with any hardware supported by JACK, or even with no audio interface at alli It also is a great architecture to use in audio render farms where modern networks are used to move audio instead of audio cables. The complete list of supported hardware is quite extensive.

Ardour
Ardour is a fully-featured digital audio workstation. Ardour can record, edit and mix multi-track audio, produce your own CD's, mix video soundtracks, or simply experiment with new ideas about music and sound. Ardour is capable of replacing analog or digital tape systems.
Ardour capabilities include: multichannel recording, non-linear, non-destructive region based editing with unlimited undo/redo, full automation support, a mixer whose capabilities rival high end hardware consoles, lots of plugins to warp, shift and shape your music, and controllable from hardware control surfaces at the same time as it syncs to timecode.
Ardour is not a sound file editor, a MIDI sequencer or a loop-based music system. You can use it in conjunction with Audacity which is a sound editor, or ???? with is a MIDI sequencer and ??? with is a loop based music system.
