Getting started with Faust for SuperCollider

Update February 2022: faust now comes with the faust2sc.py tool to make this all a lot easier. The instructions below have been updated to reflect that. I recently started toying around with Faust. Faust is a functional programming language specifically designed for audio manipulation. One of the many strengths of Faust is it’s compiler backends that allows the user to compile Faust code to almost any end target - including microcontrollers, JUCE/VST plugin projects, Pure Data, Max and SuperCollider - with the same Faust code.
