auv3 support #171

Thanks for a such great synth! A lot of other audiokit projects have a auv3 support.

Are there any plans to support auv3 for SynthOne? If not, what are the reasons to don't have any?

aure commented 3 years ago

AUv3 support is certainly on the roadmap, but synth one is built by volunteers and is a free and open-source product so it is not always anyone's highest priority. We certainly welcome the efforts of anyone in the community to code the AUv3 support if you want to chip in.

Are there any technical reasons why it's taking so long? What still needs to be done? How much progress is being made?

This is a really amazing synth, probably one of the best synths on the App Store. Not having AUv3 is a huge dealbreaker for me. I'd really like to have it, but I know this is a volunteer project and progress is slower than other projects. Hopefully more work will be done on this.

@diskscape The technical reason is that it's a major undertaking. SynthOne was engineered as a standalone app (with the connectivity of iAA Audiobus etc.) not as a plugin that can be run within a host, with multiple instances. There is major singleton reliance that needs be sorted out.
