https://github.com/msys2/msys2/wiki/How-does-MSYS2-differ-from-Cygwin

Cygwin: Gives you application support for POSIX compatible API, build and run environment. Useful when you have a native POSIX application you want to compile and run on a windows box.

MSYS2: API's and build environment. This is useful when you have something like a library you want to use that requires autotools or has a complicated build system.

MinGW: POSIX API. Useful if you want to compile, or especially cross compile using gcc, use POSIX api's and have access to unix command line tools.
  1. Install Visual Studio Community:

https://www.visualstudio.com/

  1. Configure Visual Studio build environment

https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/MSVC#Settingtheenvironment

Sets source and target architecture to x64:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Preview\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" x64
  1. Clone fluidsynth repository:
git clone git@github.com:FluidSynth/fluidsynth.git
  1. Install msys2 toolchain:

http://www.msys2.org/

MSYS2 is a software distro and building platform for Windows an independent rewrite of MSYS, based on modern Cygwin (POSIX compatibility layer) and MinGW-w64 provides a bash shell, Autotools, revision control systems and the like for building native Windows applications using MinGW-w64 toolchains features a package management system to provide easy installation of packages, Pacman

  1. Grab latest package definitions:

Press the Start key to search for and launch an MSYS2 command prompt. Named MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit.

pacman -Syu

It may ask you to close the terminal and run update one more time:

pacman -Su
  1. install libfluidsynth.dll:

https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/blob/master/mingw-w64-fluidsynth/PKGBUILD

pacman -S --needed mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-fluidsynth

  1. Install VST3 Audio Plug-Ins SDK

Such that this folder exists:

C:\SDKs\VST_SDK\VST3_SDK
  1. Install JUCE and Projucer

https://shop.juce.com/get-juce

JUCE should be installed to C:\Juce

  1. With Projucer, open juicysfplugin/juicysfplugin.jucer

5.onsecondthoughtsdon't) Configure MSYS2 environment

Press the Start key to search for and launch an MSYS2 command prompt. Named MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit.

Ensure that on MSYS2's path, Visual Studio's cl and link programs have the highest precedence:

echo 'export PATH="/c/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio/Preview/Community/VC/Tools/MSVC/14.14.26428/bin/Hostx64/x64/:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc

Ensure that any libs or headers you wish to include are added to the path:

echo 'export LIB="EXAMPLE:$LIB"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export INCLUDE="EXAMPLE:$INCLUDE"' >> ~/.bashrc
