SRVB is a small digital reverb audio plugin (VST3/AU) for MacOS and Windows.

This is the Svelte + Typescript + Bun version of the plugin, which is forked from https://github.com/elemaudio/srvb.

This project demonstrates one way to write an audio plugin using JavaScript and familiar web technologies, and while there are several variants on this approach, it is meant to be both a compelling example and a good starting point for audio plugins made with a similar architecture.

See: https://github.com/elemaudio/srvb

If you're new to Elementary Audio, Elementary is a JavaScript/C++ library for building audio applications.

See https://github.com/elemaudio/srvb.

• dsp/ contains all the elementary audio specific API calls and controls the underlying DSP logic.
• src/ contains all the Web UI code which renders the knobs and calls off to the injected window logic from dsp/
• native/ is where all the native audio plugins will be generated.

Everything

Before running the following steps, please make sure you have the following dependencies installed and available at the command line:

• CMake
• Node.js
• Bun.js
• Bash: the build steps below expect to run scripts in a Bash environment. For Windows machines, consider running the following steps in a Git Bash environment, or with WSL.

Next, we fetch the SRVB project and its dependencies,

git submodule update --init --recursive

bun install

bun run dev -- --open

In develop mode, the native plugin is compiled to fetch its JavaScript assets from localhost, where subsequently we run the Vite dev server to serve those assets. This arrangement enables Vite's hot reloading behavior for developing the plugin while it's running inside a host.

bun run build

In release builds, the JavaScript bundles are packaged into the plugin app bundle so that the resulting bundle is relocatable, thereby enabling distribution to end users.

The files will be built and written to: native/build/scripted/SRVB_artefacts/

To load the plugin in Ableton once you have built and released it:

• Open Ableton Live preferences and go to "Plugin-ins"
• Add custom VST-3 folder, and choose the native/build/scripted/SRVB_artefacts/ which is relative to this directory.

This will then give you a "SRVB" plugin in ableton which is now useable.
