 ### Environment setup
 
-Apart from requiring _CMake_ and a C(++) compiler such as _Clang_ or _MSVC_, the only other dependency is the [VST SDK from Steinberg](https://www.steinberg.net/en/company/developers.html) (the projects latest update requires SDK version 3.7.6).

 Be aware that prior to building the plugin, the Steinberg SDK needs to be built from source as well. Following Steinbergs guidelines, the build target should be a _/build_-subfolder of the _/vst3sdk_-folder.
 To generate a release build of the library, execute the following commands from the root of the Steinberg SDK folder:
