This looks incredible! But to be honest, it also looks incredibly daunting.
As a programmer and former physicist, I'm fascinated. As a musician, I'm not sure. At the moment, my feeling is that your landing page primarily addresses me as a programmer/physicist, and I'll definitely try it. But if you also want to sell this to musicians, what is really missing are more complex sound examples, like a tour of the existing presets and how you can manipulate them. There is your introduction video, but to be perfectly honest, the sounds you feature there do not really impress me. From what I can hear there, it very much sounds like the already existing physical modeling plugins, for instance AAS Chromaphone, and I already have plenty of those and they are much easier to use (also, their product page is a good example on how to sell a product to musicians). I can see of course that your VST allows me to dive much deeper into the weeds, and as a programmer/physicist I'm interested, but the musician in me is doubtful if the invested work will be worth with.
Again, this looks awesome, and I really hope you can make this into a business, so please see my critique above as encouragement.
Same here, and it is excellent.
I am getting a few buffer-drop clicking on an M3 MBP, reducing the polyphony solved it, but just in case, to the author: how much more efficiency you think you can still add to this amazing plugin?
This is a long story, which is still ongoing. The GPU code is very, very heavily optimized (though I do still have some ideas on how to go further). The main problem we're having on Mac hardware is that the OS heuristics for when to turn the clock rate up on the GPU work really poorly for the audio use case. If you want gory details, I've written about it:
