FX Plugins doesnt show up in CUBASE (MAC)

[treynterrio]

Hi there, I've tested my FX plugins in all DAWs and they work without any problems. I've send them to someone who should tested it in CUBASE for me and for him it doesnt work.

@treynterrio did you codesign and notarize it? It is likely be flagged as malware by Apple (assuming it's a mac) so the user can't see it

@HISEnberg not the VST3 file

@treynterrio so you have two option.

1. codesign/notarize the vst-3 file.
2. Send it unsigned. Make sure your user/tester has all applications that access the plugin folder closed. Download and migrate the VST3/AU file to the plugins folder. Open the DAW (Cubase in this case). Apple will flag it as malware. Open the system settings, privacy and security, and there you can select allow application.

Both of these options are really annoying but can't be avoided, unless they test the plugin or build it from HISE on their end.
