Exploration

Rust VSTi Playground

A hosted collection of browser audio experiments built around a shared Rust/WASM core. The public site ships the static build artifact only, while the implementation stays in a separate source repo and keeps room for future plugin work.

Overview

What is here

The hosted build currently includes four public experiments: Rust Core Voices, Harmonic Bloom, Plucked Cloud, and Tape Drift Chords. Together they cover a shared Rust voice engine, Web Audio hosting, and the lightweight import contract used to publish cacheable binary assets under this domain.

Runtime expectations

Audio only starts after an explicit user gesture. The current artifact ships a real Rust wasm engine for the shared-core path and keeps browser scheduling, visualization, and page hosting in the web shell.

On iPhone and iPad, system Silent Mode can still suppress Web Audio output even when the page starts correctly. If device testing looks silent, disable Silent Mode and confirm the hardware volume before treating it as an engine failure.
