              @nesta99 - did you codesign your plugin? on BigSur it will not load in your DAW if its not codesigned.
              Disabling gatekeeper will not stop the checks running inside Logic.

              HOWEVER, read this:

              Just a moment...

              (www.kvraudio.com)

              TLDR: - it seems that you cannot build backwards compatible code signed and product signed plugins on BigSur, its missing SH1 based certificates - which, despite being a broken protocol for security, all the other MacOSes require.

              So if you are building on BigSur - you can ONLY ship correctly signed plugins that work on BigSur, they will not work on any other MacOS that requires codesigning - so that is at least Mojave and Catalina - unless I'm reading it wrong.

              @nesta99 - you really really really need to pay attention to the advice that BigSur is NOT supported for HISE and you shouldnt be using it. If you dont have M1 silicon then I would install Catalina, or even better Mojave and rebuild from there.

                  @Lindon So does this mean that we should really be codesigning if we want to make sure our plugins are compatible for BigSur? I'm building on Mojave, don't have BigSur installed anywhere because, like, why would I :face_with_tears_of_joy:

                    @DanH you need to be codesigning for your plugins to work in any DAW from Mojave onward...so Mojave, Catalina and BigSur

                    Your installers and standalone apps also need to be notarized to run on those OSes..

                    Check out @d-healey 's all new app to do compiling codesigning and notarizing from one simple interface...

                      @Lindon Thanks, I've got @d-healey 's app. All my plugins are working in Mojave and Catalina so far. Haven't got my head around codesigning yet, but it is what we set in the project settings menu in HISE?

                          @nesta99 The App is in Beta for @d-healey's patrons only... But he will release it for everyone soon I think?

                              I don't think setting things in HISE will make XCode sign your apps automatically (but I could be wrong) I think you still have to go through the commandline or do some other tweaks in Xcode.

                              Some time next year once it's out of beta. Basically when it's been tested and bug fixed a bunch of times.

                              It doesn't do the codesigning, it just runs the commandline in the background to do the codesigning for you. You just need to fill in the boxes with the correct details and it will handle the technical stuff. You'll still need an Apple Developer account to notarize.

                                @d-healey Great!! Thanks ! I think the best thing to do for now is to downgrade to Mojave..

                                  No. You will have to do it for each app/plugin individually once you've compiled and tested them ready for shipping.

                                  There are many posts here - even one where I document my process :

                                        I have a customer who is having an issue running one of my codesigned/notarized plugins in Logic 10.6.1 on an M1 system running Big Sur. He's saying the plugin doesn't show up in Logic's plugin list. Any ideas?

                                          @d-healey is the plugin coed unique? (FILE>Preferences>Project>Plugin Code)Logic is the only DAW I know of that insists every plugin has a unique ID.
