VST Preset Generator README

VST Preset Generator is a software to create random preset for VST plugins.

See Official Website for releases and documentation.

News

See CHANGELOG for new features and bug fixes.

Source Structure

  • build contains scripts to generate the software for official release, including installers and documentation.
  • doc contains the AsciiDoc source files of the documentation.
  • src contains the source files of the software, mainly in C++ programming language.

How to Build

Prerequisites

  • Qt 5.6
  • Steinberg VST2 SDK. Copy the VST SDK folder pluginterfaces/vst2.x into the src folder of VST Preset Generator. Otherwise the VeSTige header will be used as substitute.
  • AsciiDoctor with the pdf plugin for the documentation. To install asciidoctor-pdf plugin, use ruby gem package manager: gem install --pre asciidoctor-pdf.

Easy Way with Qt Creator

Open src/vpg.pro in Qt Creator and launch the compilation.

You can also build src/test/vpgtests.pro and launch the tests with the command make check.

Command Line

You can build the software with Qt command line tools. Run qmake to generate the Makefile then run make to build the software.

See the build script build/build_in_msys2.sh as example.

The sudo make install command copies the output to /usr/bin. Patch the file src/vpg_linux_deploy.pri to change the install folder.

Official Windows Build

The official releases for Windows are generated with Qt5 static inside MSYS2. The script build/build_in_msys2.sh automates the build and generation of 32bits and 64bits releases with installers and documentation.

The targets are mingw-w64-i686-qt5-static and mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-static.

For more information about MinGW-64 with Qt: https://wiki.qt.io/MinGW-64-bit#Qt-builds.
