 You can build with `clang`, although in that case the CMakeFile defaults to using `libc++` instead of `libstdc++`.
+
+### Building with MSVC on windows
+
+The simplest is to use `vcpkg` as a package manager, which will give you access to `libsndfile`.
+```sh
+PS> git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git
+PS> cd vcpkg
+PS> .\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
+PS> .\vcpkg integrate install
+PS> .\vcpkg integrate powershell
+```
+
+Assuming you want to build for x64, install the relevant packages as follows
+```sh
+PS> .\vcpkg.exe install libsndfile:x64-windows zlib:x64-windows libsamplerate:x64-windows
+```
+
+In the sfizz source directory, you can then build with CMake as usual, although you should clone the windows branch:
+```sh
+git clone --branch windows --recursive https://github.com/sfztools/sfizz.git
+cd sfizz
+mkdir build && cd build
+cmake .. -DSFIZZ_JACK=OFF "-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=C:\Users\Paul\source\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake" -DVCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET=x64-windows
+cmake --build . -j 16 --config Release
+```
