Link collection of DSP / audio programming sites
If you feel like diving into programming of plugins yourself (and I would encourage you to do so), here is an
(unsorted) collection of links to get more information.
Some of them are pretty well-known among the community of programmers, others found their way into my
audio plugins
bookmark list just by surfing the net and feeding the search engines with stupid questions.
Beware: Starting to program plugins can make you addicted, weird, look neglected and may isolate you from
your normal environment :D
Furthermore, it can be very frustrating when things don't work as expected and your computer keeps on
resources crashing. I recommend you to look for someone to pick you up from time to time... ;)
