Could you build this?

Partial The UI and WAV-export workflow are codeable, but VST3 plugin hosting and low-latency audio processing need specialized C++ audio expertise.

What it would actually take: The usual stack is C++ with JUCE, which handles audio I/O, the VST3 SDK for plugin hosting, and DSP for silence detection and fades. The hard parts are plugin hosting stability, sample-accurate editing, and the script-alignment algorithm. Building it requires an audio-software engineer comfortable with real-time threading and plugin standards.
