Study the source code of the Vital wavetable synthesizer.
Build Vital from source yourself instead of downloading the official binary release.
Contact Vital's licensing email if you need a non GPLv3 license for a proprietary app.
Report build or compile issues, understanding they are not actively prioritized.

Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
Building a synthesizer from C++ source requires an audio development toolchain, the README recommends the official binary download instead.
The repository description says this project is an attempt at building an effects version of a certain synthesizer, but the README itself is entirely about Vital, a spectral warping wavetable synthesizer, and appears to be the standard README that ships with Vital's own source code rather than a description of this specific fork's effects work. Because of that mismatch, this explanation sticks closely to what the README actually says. The README explains that this repository holds the source code for Vital, and that it is updated on a delay compared to the official binary releases you would download from the Vital website. To actually install and use Vital as an application, the README directs you to create an account and download it from vital.audio rather than building it yourself from this source. The source code is licensed under the GPLv3, and the README lays out several specific restrictions on top of that license. You are not allowed to distribute an app built from this source on the iOS App Store, since Apple's store terms are not compatible with GPLv3, unless you separately pay for a non GPLv3 licensing exception. You may not use the names Vital, Vital Audio, Tytel, or Matt Tytel to market or label any binaries you build from this source, since the license does not grant trademark rights. You are also not allowed to have your own builds connect to Vital's own web services, and you cannot redistribute the presets bundled with the free version of Vital, since those presets are covered by a separate license that does not permit redistribution. The README also sets expectations for contributing: bug reports about the app itself should go to the official Vital forum rather than this repository, build and compile issues can be reported here though the maintainer says they are not prioritized, and pull requests will not be accepted at all. Anyone wanting to build a closed source or proprietary application using Vital's code is told to contact Vital's licensing email for a non GPLv3 licensing option instead.
A GPLv3-licensed mirror of Vital synthesizer source code, though the repo's own description claims it is an in-progress effects version of a synth.
Mainly C++. The stack also includes C++.
You can use, modify, and share the code, but any modified version you distribute must also be released under GPLv3 with source available, and you cannot use it in an iOS App Store app or use Vital's name or presets without a separate paid license.
Setup difficulty is rated hard, with roughly 1h+ to a first successful run.
Mainly developer.
