Building

Requires CMake 3.22+ and a C++17 compiler.

make        # Fetch JUCE, configure, build, and install (AU + VST3)

Running make with no arguments will fetch JUCE, build MonoSlicer in Release mode, copy the AU and VST3 plugins to your system directories, and trigger an Audio Unit rescan.

Individual targets are also available:

make fetch      # Clone JUCE 8.0.9
make configure  # CMake configure
make build      # Build (Release)
make install    # Install AU + VST3 to system directories

Clean

make clean

Shape the sound with the amp/filter envelopes, filter, and tone controls
