Chapter 7Using RackAFX to Create ASPiK Projects

RackAFX is designed to rapidly assemble, debug, test, and verify real-time audio signal processing algorithms in C++. The first version was designed for algorithms that would be burned into a hardwired DSP chip. Over the years it became a teaching tool for demonstrating a simple plugin API and was later modified to export AAX, AU, and VST plugin projects along with GUIs designed with VSTGUI4. The modifications were made on top of an existing platform (now called the RAFX1 API). Each exported project was very different and had to be compiled in a strict manner within the different SDK folder hierarchies.
