It was Great to Meet You!

Redwood Audio Logo We are settling back in after an exciting trip to the AES 137th convention this month in LA…  There was a full house for the live tutorial session – not bad for the opening day!  Edward was pleased to meet with many of you throughout the rest of the convention.  If we somehow missed connection or you had follow-up questions or feedback on the presentation, we would of course love to hear from you!  Just send a short note through the contact link and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Of the many exciting developments, we are pleased to announce that we are collaborating with Stonebridge Mastering to further expand our tutorial/DIY development materials in book form.  We are also in final stages of consulting for Chango Studios on a Vocal Suite plugin (which may help explain some of the radio silence the last few months).  We look forward to making formal release announcements as those and some of our own projects materialize in the very near future!

Plugin Tutorial Live!

AES 137th International ConventionThank you so much for your continued interest and support in our tutorial on plugin development with JUCE!  We are pleased to announce that the primary author, Edward Stein, has been asked to present an expanded version of the content as part of the DTS, Inc. delegation to the AES 137th International Convention in Los Angeles.  The talk will focus on good practice for rapid prototyping and debugging of audio DSP algorithms for beginners.  It will cover the basics of JUCE-based VSTs/AudioUnits –  including: project setup and configuration, exposing control parameters, custom GUI, and a few useful advanced features such as incorporating MIDI control or tempo matching to the host, etc.

We hope to see you there in LA!  If you have topics you would like to see covered, or have other general inquiries for Redwood Audio – please, feel free to Contact Us and we will see what we can do!

AudioUnits Are Go!

IntroJucer in XCodeAs mentioned in an earlier news post, we have been able to accelerate our cross-platform development thanks to a generous donation of a MacBook Pro.  We have taken that opportunity to add XCode and OSX support to our JUCE Tutorial.  It now provides the needed steps for configuring an install of Xcode under OSX Mavericks – including both the current VST 2.x / 3.x as well as Audio Units (AU) plug-ins!  Thank you for your continued interest and support – feel free to drop us a line if there are other issues you would like to see sorted out in our tutorial.

In related news, Redwood Audio has joined the ranks of Commercial JUCE Developers. This will allow us to better serve some of our clients interests as well as provide new opportunities  for our own wares.  If you have projects you churning in your mind, or feedback for Redwood Audio we would be interested in hearing from you.
