Create a basic Audio/MIDI plugin, Part 1: Setting up

The Arpeggiator Plugin

JUCE API

Starter Code

You should use the Audio Plugin Host to test your MIDI plugin while developing your assignment solution. See instructions in Part 1 of the tutorial plugin on how to build the Audio Plugin Host.

For your convenience, you can download an executable of the Audio Plugin Host for Mac or PC.

The Audio Plugin Host comes with a keyboard that can be used to provide input events (your computer keyboard can be used to provide simultaneous events for arpeggiation).

Configure your debugger to run the Audio Plugin Host:

• In XCode, go to Product > Scheme > Edit Scheme. Point “Executable” to the Audio Plugin Host. Make sure Debug Executable is checked.
• In Visual Studio, go to Project Properties > Debugging > Command, and browse to the Audio Plugin Host executable. Make sure Attach is set to “No”.

When you start debugging, an instance of the plugin host will appear. Use it to load your plugin. Now debugging works for your plugin just as it does normally, i.e. you can set breakpoints etc.

You can use the JUCE DBG macro to output variable values to the debug console of your IDE. See more info here, but the simple way to output the value of variable time is to give:

DBG(time);
