Hi.&nbsp; I'm a professional developer with years of experience with C/C++/C#&nbsp;and more, but am new to JUCE and specifically MS VC++.&nbsp; I need&nbsp;to create a&nbsp;very basic and stable multitrack recorder with the following capabilities:

- Multiple tracks tied to WAV files with volume and arm on/off, plus&nbsp;a main mix volume
- Rock-solid metronome runs solo indefinitely or while recording/playing,&nbsp;with an accent beat
- Ability to add an initial playback delay in ms to a specific track
- Ability to (later?) add plug-ins to each track and/or the main mix

I've read the JUCE book and have been scouring the demos/forums/web looking&nbsp;for information on the best way to accomplish this but am finding mostly bits&nbsp;and pieces.&nbsp; I wrote a super simple program with JUCE to get a file loaded and&nbsp;playing with AudioSource but am now researching into the Processor functions&nbsp;so it can support plug-ins at some point and I really need a solid jump-start.  
  
I've noticed a number of mentions in the JUCE forums of&nbsp;members having written&nbsp;multitrack recorders over the years similar to what I need.&nbsp; I'm willing to&nbsp;pay for solid JUCE code that I can use as a basis to start building my&nbsp;project.&nbsp; I'm not concerned about a fancy UI at this point, just stable&nbsp;multitrack audio code.  
  
Please send me a message with any questions or suggestions.  
  
Thanks!  
  
Dave

Hi Dave,

you might want to take a look at my (old) code for the Choreographer for some bits and pieces. It's a playback engine for a basic sequencer where you can move your sound-sources around in 3d space. The desired sound field is generated via an arbitrary number of speakers, using Ambisonics Equivalent Panning.

Thanks, Samuel. &nbsp;I'm booting my Mac now and will dig into it for some direction on how to get started!
