      Hi. It's been a week since I discovered HISE. I installed the precompiled version, messed around with it, learned how to compile it, learned about its features and use cases, and now I have an idea.

      I can see that underground and mainstream music are going to be more ANALOG, which you can see in YouTube videos, Reddit topics, new plugins, etc. I thought it would be wonderful to build a complete analog-focused creation (a few reverb algorithms, a few types of dual and mono delays, some frequency modulators, a few types of saturations, pitch drift and pitch stutters, phase and chorus combinations, and an analogizer pedal to put on any FX like reverb, delay, granular, etc.).

      I realized something: with the default libraries, I'm limited to default algorithms for reverbs, saturations, and so on (I don't think convolution reverb is a good fit for this). SO I SHOULD USE 3RD PARTY ALGORITHMS. I'm sorry about my weak technical knowledge, but I promise I'm not that bad :)

      I don't know if this is the right way to ask all these questions, but:

      1. Am I right that I should use third-party scripts/algorithms?
      2. I should use Faust or SNEX, right?
      3. I tried to compile HISE with Faust, but whenever I try to load even an empty file, it crashes. I followed everything in the official video and tried 2 different versions of HISE and Faust. Should I leave it and try SNEX or something else?
      4. Is there any collection or online directory for custom FX written in Faust, SNEX, etc.? (If I need to use them for a custom plate reverb without using a convolution reverb).
      5. Did I choose the easiest and most powerful tool for this project?

      Thank you all ;]]

          Yes, if you want an effect that HISE doesn't provide then that is the way to do it. Faust, ScriptNode, SNEX, C++, are all good options. Which one you choose depends on the algorithm you're using and which tools you're comfortable with.

          Which video?

          Yes but you'll need to reinstall it every time you want to update your HISE build or export your projects. Probably a good time to buy a new drive.

            7.do you suggest any of these so i can use prebuild scripts? i know some python, should i learn c++ and others?

              I hadn't seen that one before. That video doesn't show how to compile HISE.

              I have a full beginner course for HISE that includes compiling it from source, it's free: https://audiodevschool.com/courses/hise-bootcamp/

              If you want to use existing code then Faust is probably the way to go. C++ is complicated and with SNEX there are fewer prewritten scripts available.

                That was the same video, i just copied youtube link from the bootcamp page :)
                i built HISE for windows with faust on the same way you said, and tried on two diffrent version of hise and faust, every 4 combinations results crash on first try to load a FAUST node on script node.
                What other information should i give you sir?

                          i deleted the execute file from pre build version, there was no uninstaller on folders or controll panel, should i try delete any file titled HISE (i'll search whit everything) and compile again?
                          i cleared solutions every time i was about to build a new solution like you said. so i think just 1.

                            Do you have more than one copy of the HISE source code on your system?

                              I deleted the HISE folder on documents. then i tried cloning the other branch called fix/868-matrix-target-change. so again no

                                  i cleaned the build, deleted all HISE and Faust files and folders

                                  the i cloned develope branch again and compiled everything again based on the video,
                                  then i downloaded and installed faust with no errors, i chosed thefaust path on setting, tried a new script fx and loading faust, and crashed again. Screenshot 2026-08-06 204638.png

                                    You have to install faust before you compile HISE.

                                          @David-Healey Hi.

                                          I decided to remove everything and reinstall it all (of course, I did watch the instruction video). So I did. I downloaded everything from the description link you provided. I copied your command. I did install Faust. Then, I compiled it just like in the video. I ran the program, created a new project, saved the XML, set up the Faust path, created a script FX, allowed compilation, created a Faust node, created a new Faust file, and then... that exact same error and crash.

                                          I'm tired. What other info should I give you, sir?
