A few things to know.

Demo guide ↗
I cannot hear anything

Choose a track and press play. Check the player volume and your system output. If an effect is silent, bypass it to check the original audio.

Which plugins can I use?

This rack is for installed VST3 effects with stereo input and output. Instrument plugins need MIDI and are covered in the instrument example. macOS is the first supported platform.

Why is there a short delay?

Audio travels through the local Bridge and back using a small buffer. Processing details show plugin-reported latency and buffer counters; these are not end-to-end latency measurements.

WVST is an open source Rust and WebAudio bridge for local VST3 processing.
