As an audio engineer what type of programmer would design plug-ins for DAW'S. I have ideas but no idea how to code. I can explain what I am trying to do in terms of the audio. Anyone have some knowledge on this?
audio engineer here, i'm interested, bump
Steinberg made the VST standard so I'd start there.

Likewise with Apple and AU:

A C++ programmer with DSP experience most likely.
Most common audio plugin types from what I've seen are "VST" and AU (Audio Units, for Mac)
So if you look up "How to program VST plugins" or "How to program AU plugins" it might give you additional insight.
Lots of DSP knowledge and a background in trigonometry helps.

Learn C++, the VST standard, digital signal processing.
