Writing the Authoring Part of an Audio Plug-in

The Authoring plug-in is composed of two files:

  • An XML definition of the model, that is the plug-in's properties.
  • A dynamic library (.dll) providing the implementation of SoundBank generation and a graphical interface.

The dynamic library must link to the Sound Engine part of the plug-in.

Refer to Writing the Sound Engine Part of an Audio Plug-in for more details on this part of the plug-in.
