Writing an audio plug-in can be a daunting task: there are a multitude of plug-in formats and DAWs, all with slightly different requirements. This workshop will guide you through the process of creating your first audio plug-in using the JUCE framework.
This workshop will cover:
- An introduction to JUCE
- Configuring a plug-in project
- Adding parameters to your plug-in and accessing them safely
- Creating a basic GUI
- Debugging and testing your plug-in
During the workshop, attendees will create a simple audio plug-in under the guidance of the JUCE developers.
Workshop Requirements:
Attendees must be able to compile the projects supplied in the most recent JUCE SDK using the corresponding IDE for their computer: Visual Studio 2022 for Windows, Xcode for macOS, and a Makefile for Linux. This may require installing Visual Studio 2022, Xcode or all of the
Linux dependencies.
There will not be time to do this within the workshop itself.
