Harpejji-VST

This VST plugin is a virtual instrument that emulates the sound of an Harpejji, created as my Bachelor's thesis project using physical modeling synthesis techniques. The plugin was built using the JUCE framework in C++, and can be used within any DAW that supports VST3 plugins or as a standalone application in Windows (or in MacOS if compiled again on an Apple machine).

For more information you can read the document of the thesis in spanish here or automatically translated to english (with some errors in the translation) here.
