Currently you still need rustc and cargo installed !. To install this, go to this page: https://www.rust-lang.org/learn/get-started . This will guide you to the process of installing the necessary tools for your operating system. On Windows, that's a bit annoying because you need some VisualStudio components which might take a lot of space. The rust installation will show you a link to the necessary software. The installer defaults should be fine, you'll only need the C++ part. On macOS, you'll need the Xcode command-line tools, which can be installed calling xcode-select --install in a terminal. Any version of Rust above 1.57 (stable version as of early 2022) should work (last tested with 1.57). My goal is to provide precompiled binaries later on.
In a terminal, type:. The ringbuffer feature makes sure you can use various blocksizes. The blocksize is otherwise fixed to 512. If you can control the blocksize in your system (with JACK and CoreAudio that's typically possible), you can use the version without the ringbuffer. If you're not sure, use the ringbuffer. It has a small performance penalty but shouldn't matter on modern systems. Now you can call Mégra from a terminal calling megra_rs. On Linux, make sure JACK is started (or call with the pw-jack prefix if using PipeWire). On Windows, you can also find the exe file and double-click it.
