fearn-e / octetviolins

A plugin / application built with iPlug2 for modelling violin-type impulse responses

OctetViolins

An app or plugin made using iPlug2 for emulating the resonances of the Violin Octet. The plugin can also process the resonances to create virtual imagined body resonances.

Formats / OS:

• OctetViolins is curently provided as AUv2 (mac only) and VST2 / VST3 (mac / windows).
• Other formats are support by iPlug 2 but not yet configured to build correctly.

To Install the Plugin:

• Automated builds of the plugin can be found on the releases page of GitHub (the latest version is at the top).
• If you do not need to build from source you are strongly advised to download the official builds linked above, rather than to download the source code / repository available directly from the frontpage of the repo on GitHub.

To Build the Plugin:

• You will require a fully setup version of iPlug 2.
• This repo is designed to be placed in a subfolder of the iPlug 2 repository (e.g. iPlug2/Projects).
• The HISSTools_PluginLib repo is also required to be placed next to this one before building (e.g. iPlug2/Projects).
• You will need to make sure that the HISSTools_Library submodule is correctly initialised (which can be done with git submodule update --init if you have already pulled the repository and you did not pull in a manner that already handled this).
• The supplied Xcode workspace and Visual Studio solution should then build the valid plugin formats (AUv2 / VST2 / VST3) correctly.

OctetViolins Makes Use Of:

• iPlug 2 - a C++ audio plug-in framework for desktop, mobile (iOS) and web

• HISSTools_PluginLib - Common code that provides UI controls / DSP for all HISSTools plugins
  https://github.com/AlexHarker/HISSTools_PluginLib

• HISSTools_Library - a C++ library for DSP (included as a submodule)
