Creative Coding
Creating VSTs and more using FAUST
Write audio plug-ins and other targets using the FAUST functional DSP language, working through building and exporting effects as VSTs.
Course overview
FAUST is a programming language that enables us to quickly create cross-platform DSP code. We can easily create VST plugins, Max-Externals and more. Its high-quality built-in library of effects and tools enables us to quickly draft high quality audio processing devices. The workshop aims at getting new users started, conveying what FAUST is good for and how to use it effectively to produce high quality results quickly.
