SimpleStrip DAW Plugin

This repository provides the source code for a simple DAW plugin, implemented using C++ and JUCE. The plugin features a basic channel strip with two audio processors connected in series: a low-pass filter and a gain trim. This can serve as a starting point for building more complex audio processing plugins.

Installation

Create a default JUCE plugin project and replace the generated source files with the ones provided in this repository.

Prerequisites

• JUCE (latest version)
• A C++ development environment (e.g., Visual Studio, Xcode)

Steps

1. Create a new JUCE plugin project:

   • Open the JUCE Projucer application.
   • Create a new project and choose the "Audio Plug-In" template.
   • Configure your project settings (name, company, etc.) and save it.

2. Replace source files:

   • Navigate to your project's Source folder.
   • Copy all the source files from this repository and paste them into the Source folder of your JUCE project, replacing the existing files.

3. Build the project:

   • Open your JUCE project in your chosen IDE (e.g., Visual Studio, Xcode).
   • Build the project.
   • Import "SimpleStrip.vst3" into your DAW and test.

Usage

Once you have built the project, you can load the plugin in your DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) and use the following controls:

• Low-Pass Filter:

  • Adjust the cutoff frequency to control the point where the filter starts attenuating high frequencies.
  • Modify the resonance to increase the emphasis at the cutoff frequency.

• Gain Trim:

  • Use the gain control to adjust the output level of the audio signal.
