do i use make or cmake?
make and cmake do different things and are not mutually exclusive. in fact, people often use cmake to generate makefiles.
again, with msys2 the workflow is roughly the same as in Linux.
some things to watch out:
- you might need to install the compiler toolchains first with "pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain" and "pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain"
- you have to pick the right shell, i.e. "MSYS2 MINGW32 SHELL" for 64-bit binaries and "MSYS2 MINGW64 SHELL" for 64-bit externals
- if the external uses pd-lib-builder, then you might need to set PDBINDIR and PDINCLUDEDIR if Pd has been installed at a non-standard location.
- if the external uses cmake, pick the "Unix Makefile" generator.

Hello Folks i have been using pd and compiling source for externals myself for a few years but it was always Linux ans Macintosh but now i have a windows 10 computer and i would like if possible to learn to compile externals for and with windows 64 bit Needed 64 bit externals: Freeverb~ Fluidsynth~ Soundhack collection Eric Lyon's potpourri FFtease v3 Spencer Russells 's Gendy to start with and i NEED these to be cross platform for my world domination plans Is there a place i may learn to do this? Would you share what tools you use if you do compile for win64? All feedback is welcome Thank you! --
