How to Export Plugin as AU format
-
Hello HISE forum I am struggling to find a solution online for this, but is there a way to build my plugin in the Audio Unit format on a Windows 11 device? If so, how would I go about doing that, is there an SDK that I need in order to be able to successfully export the project?
I have successfully built my project in both VST and DLL formats but I don't see an option for AU when I hit the export as instrument (VSTi, AUI) button.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

@ATWAW You need macOS to build AU, because that's Apple's format.
Either get a Mac or install macOS into a virtual machine. Maybe you can even do it with Github Builds but I never tried.

Don't build VST2, you're not "allowed" to release them without a license (which you can't get any more)

@d-healey Oh shoot, I didn't even know I could build VST2, do I also need a license for VST3?
-
@ATWAW To distribute yes, but its's as easy as sending Steinberg an email and signing a document. It's free.

@aaronventure Okay thank you for your help, looks like I'm gonna learn how to create a virtual installation of Mac lol
