Export as instrument (VSTi/AUi) Plugin [Level:Beginner]
-
Hi! As a total beginner I created a basic sample instrument and decided to export it to test if everything is gonna work fine in my DAW.
- I installed HISE3.0.1 EXE installed to its default directory (I'm on Windows 11).
- When I tried exporting my project, I got the "Hise path not set" error, so I tried to locate the folder from the references, but I couldn't find it.
- I installed Visual Studio 2022, IPP, and downloaded the HISE-3.0.1 zip. I unpacked the zip, unpacked "ASIOSDK2.3" and "VST3 SDK" in tools\SDK (the folder inside it), and I eventually was able to locate this HISE-3.0.1 folder as the Hise path in the references.
- Now I click export as a VST instrument, select "All platforms" and it the following errors appear:
- It looks like I have both Visual Studio 2017 and 2022 installed on my PC. Anyway, I changed to the 2017 version in the settings, tried exporting it again, this time in the pop-up window I selected "VSTi 64bit" only, the terminal opens and says:
So... How do I fix all of it? I mean, my goal is to be able to export a VST instrument as VST2 64bit, VST3 64bit, AU, AAX formats. (I also heard that I need to export them from Mac OS to get them working on Mac. I got a macbook and I'm planing just to copy my HISE project to mac, open and export the final version there later).

Have you built HISE from source? If not then that is the first step
-
@Shinami-Sound First remove MS VS 2017 comletely. Install 2022 and the install One Api IPP. Download HISE From Master or Develop Branch. Compile with 2022 MS VS. Then export .dll/vst3 it should work.

@Shinami-Sound The pre built binary is a nice way to try out HISE without putting in the time investment required to build it yourself.
-
@Shinami-Sound Lets assume you have 3 machine (Windows) with same config, you can use pre built Binary (exe) for making project/export project, import HISe snippets or general research. But When you will go to export plugins, you need to compile the binary from your system. If you successfully compile HISE there is 99% chance you will get successful compiled plugins on every export.
