VST Server

Host audio VSTs and audio processing on a web server.

Installation

Install requirements.

pip install -r requirements.txt

Installing pluginval

To validate VSTs we use a tool developed by Tracktion called pluginval. This is a contraction of plugin validator, and is used to determine if a VST will run on the system of choice.

MacOS

curl -L "https://github.com/Tracktion/pluginval/releases/download/latest_release/pluginval_macOS.zip" -o pluginval.zip
unzip pluginval.zip

Linux

curl -L "https://github.com/Tracktion/pluginval/releases/download/latest_release/pluginval_linux.zip" -o pluginval.zip
unzip pluginval.zip

Start Server

Start the server by running the following command.

python3 app/server.py

Adding audio effects

Audio effects are stored as VSTs and loaded from the PLUGIN_DIR defined in app/config.py.
