is there somethin similar in C++. this is really useful, but most VST etc. afaik get built in c++, i know for example JUCE framework to build em uses c++ so to me that seems a practical language for such a tool

(focussing on the last bit of the article mentioning it can be used in digital instruments / dsp. totally agree!)

Since xenharmlib is written in python it is not suitable for real-time audio because of the latency that an interpreted language introduces.

I think if someone was willing they could port the library to C or Rust rather easily, because apart from Exceptions the coding style is functional and stateless. AFAIK Rust has some libraries that provide a VST interface.
