      Hi all, when releasing a plugin that might have the same name as another, is it ok to just rename the filename? For example if I called my plugin 'Instrument' in my Hise project settings, could I then change the component filename to be 'Instrument CompanyName.vst3' without causing any issues?

      I can see other companies do this to avoid duplicates overwriting each other, just wondering what's the best thing to do in this case.

        I think it would also require changing the plugin code - at least on Mac os
