Sorry if this question appears stupid, I have read the forum regarding similar questions, but the topics aren't specific to my particular problem.

I have a project that I'd like to see released on both pc and mac.

Trouble is, I am no programmer.

So i've enlisted the help of a pro and taken the role of project manager.

I've made a synth in SM myself and got it all down to one big block of code.

Could the programmer use this to work from to translate it into their programming language?

If not, what would be the best way of getting the basics of the synth ported over?

if its in code i would guess someone with good knowledge of c++ and the vst sdk should be able to rewrite it in c++ and then export is as vst for mac and pc. if its a synth the midi conversion would need a write from scratch, an effect is probably easier, however i have no clue what you really need to do or what programs are required.

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
