This paper provides an overview of the developments in the FAUST programming language and ecosystem since the 2022 International FAUST Conference. Over the past two years, the FAUST community has made significant progress in compiler enhancements, backend integrations, web-based tools, a new Widget Modulation language extension, and FPGA support for audio DSP compilation.

The Emeraude team, a collaboration between Inria, GRAME-CNCM, and INSA Lyon, started its work in March 2022 and has strengthened FAUST's development and application in academic and industrial contexts.

Additionally, a reflective process and proposed consortium aim to empower the user community in guiding FAUST's future direction.

The paper also explores several industrial applications, highlighting the practical impact and versatility of the FAUST ecosystem.
