VSTs for live coding audio effects in real-time?

I.e. a VST that has some programming language and allows compiling on-the-fly?

no.

yes.

I have one that you can do very simple stuff in as it contains an expression evaluator. Unfortunately even a simple volume control burns through a lot of CPU as currently the "program" is only compiled into a series of "instruction" steps in a table, and executing that table is quite expensive compared to executing native code.

You should instead look at something like Reaper's JSFX which is far more practical and mature.

My idea was to be able to trial what some randomly chosen functions do when put into the signal path.

Yeah JSFX is probably ideal for this, but it'd be nicer if it was VST SDK based.

There is APE, but the download links seem to have expired

Oh, I almost forgot APE.

Hunh, I always thought APE was strictly offline compiling, not realtime. Cool. I have v.0.3.0 somewhere; I'll see if I can find it.

ISTR that there was something for live coding in Lua, but my aged brain maybe be playing tricks on me... nope, DuckDuckGo! (it's like Google, minus the tracking) tells me it's here. Lua is a nice little language, although I miss curly braces and math shortcuts.

The APE repo is here I believe:

Binaries can be also found from:

I thought of not purchasing a commercial solution, because of e.g. APE.
But I might try out the demo.

I've just discovered this amazing thing called a search engine.

I typed in 'live coding VST' and I couldn't beleive the results I got.
