Building Our Gain Plug-In

Building the plug-in is done in exactly the same way we built the JUCE demo plug-in.

Go to the 'Config' tab in The Introjucer. It should have been clever and created an exporter relevant to whatever OS you are using. If not, remember you can add a new project exporter by right clicking on the name of the project at the top of the list.

Also remember that we need to tell it where to find the VST SDK files.

Once you have done that, you can leave The Inrojucer and build the plug-in using whatever tools you have installed, as discussed earlier.

Hopefully you should end up with a new plug-in which you can test out in the host of your choice. Congratulations you have programmed your very own audio plug-in.

You should now have a good groundwork in order to start making your own, super funky, plug-ins. Maybe one day I will do a tutorial on making plug-in editors with JUCE.

Have a nice day now!
