7 sourcesSignalsmith Audio always has great posts. Their article on pitch shift is also worth a look! I have also posted before:

Speaking of reverb, I implemented a Dattorro reverb (https://ccrma.stanford.edu/~dattorro/EffectDesignPart1.pdf) in Rust before.
https://github.com/chaosprint/dattorro-vst-rs
It's based on Glicol source code here:
https://github.com/chaosprint/glicol/blob/main/rs/synth/src/...
You can play with it here:

Also you don't want to miss the Tom Erbe's reverb patches in Pure Data. Patches demonstrating several types of reverb (Schroeder, Moorer, Moore, Gerzon, Dattorro):

I think you do accept the convenience of browsers (many cool projects such as this one https://learningsynths.ableton.com/).
So now the problem is the audio performance.
As I post in the comments below, we now have WASM, so C++ and Rust can all run in browsers. This can provide a near-native audio performance.
Just take Glicol, the live coding language I design as an example: it runs in browsers (https://glicol.org) and it also runs as a VST plugin (https://youtu.be/tmmBhBmIEW0), or you can use the audio engine to write VST plugin (https://github.com/chaosprint/dattorro-vst-rs).
In Building a musical instrument with the Web Audio APILive coding in VST is already possible:

Glicol is also an audio library, so you can write VST plugin with Glicol:

The glicol_synth audio lib:

It's free and ready to be used in music production.
The MIT license may also be an advantage for some.
Really look forward to your feedback and suggestions!
In Show HN: Dattorro reverb VST plugin written in Rust with egui and glicol_synthShow HN: Dattorro reverb VST plugin written in Rust with egui and glicol_synth
Hi HN,
I find that many are interested in writing VST plugins but found C++ quite tricky to work with.
So I made this VST plugin to show how Rust can be used to write VST plugins.
I did it by combining egui-baseview-vst template[1] and glicol_synth audio lib[2].
