Could you build this?
No Professional audio utilities and DSP plugins require deep digital signal processing expertise, real-time audio thread safety, and specialized C++ audio frameworks.
What it would actually take: Typically developed in C++ using JUCE or custom VST3/AU/AAX wrappers. The core challenge is high-performance, real-time digital signal processing (DSP) math (filters, dynamics, FFT algorithms) that must run in bounded-time real-time audio threads without memory allocations or locking. Requires dedicated audio DSP engineers and familiarity with professional audio plugin standards.
