In Visual Studio on Windows you should go to the properties page of the VST3 build target, select the "Debugging" pane, then set the path to the AudioPluginHost executable in the "Command" field. We can configure the host to enable step-through debugging of your plugin. At the end, we will end up with an audio plug-in that says "Hello, World!" and can be loaded into VST3 hosts like Cubase or REAPER. Now you are ready and good to go to code an audio plug-in that actually does some audio.
  • Used in this way the Plug-In Host gives you a very simple environment in which to test a plug-in, but there's more that we can do.
  • This tutorial will help you to set up your computer and create an Projucer project for developing audio plug-ins (VST3 and AudioUnit) using JUCE.
  • Unpack the JUCE folder and place it to some location on your computer.
  • Your user home folder is a convenient place.
  • Connect the nodes up such that the MIDI input and Audio Input nodes are routed to the inputs of your plug-in, and that your plug-in's audio output are routed to the Audio Output node.
  • Launch the Projucer application, which is located in your JUCE folder.
  • One of the challenges of building plug-ins is testing them.

JUCE 8 Features

  • Now when you build and run your plugin it will automatically launch the host, and when your plug-in is loaded inside the host you can set breakpoints and do step-through debugging.
  • All of the files that you need to create VST3 and AU (MacOS only) plug-ins are packaged with JUCE (as long as you are using a recent version of JUCE).
  • Your user home folder is a convenient place.
  • In Visual Studio on Windows you should go to the properties page of the VST3 build target, select the "Debugging" pane, then set the path to the AudioPluginHost executable in the "Command" field.
  • To build AAX plug-ins (for Pro Tools) you will need to contact Avid for a developer license in order to access their SDK.
  • Launch the Projucer application, which is located in your JUCE folder.
  • To access the host go to extras/AudioPluginHost/ and open the .jucer file with the Projucer.

Universities using JUCE

  • In this tutorial we are creating a VST3 plug-in, so make sure that the VST3 setting is ticked in the "Plugin Formats" field.
  • Now you are ready and good to go to code an audio plug-in that actually does some audio.
  • Click the build button to verify that your plug-in builds and that everything has been set up correctly.
  • At the end, we will end up with an audio plug-in that says "Hello, World!" and can be loaded into VST3 hosts like Cubase or REAPER.
  • Double click your plugin to launch the GUI.
To access the host go to extras/AudioPluginHost/ and open the .jucer file with the Projucer. Thankfully, JUCE makes that easy, with a built-in plug-in host. One of the challenges of building plug-ins is testing them.
