      Is there a simple way to convert DLL to OSX?

      Only AAX and VST is showing up if i want to export my FX plugin.
      And if i convert it to a OSX file, do i also need to create a DMG installer?

      Please help me out,

      Kind regards,
      Joe

        DLL is Windows only. A VST plugin is a .dll file.
        .so is what you get on GNU/Linux
        I can't remember what file extension the Mac one has but it might be .pkg.

        If you want to export a plugin for MacOS you need to export it using a Mac.

          @BigBlackMuzik You don't need to create an installer
          As David said, you do need to use a Mac if you want macOS plugins/standalone compatibility
          You cannot convert from an OS to the other...

          I cannot help pressing F5 in the forum...

                      A standalone app is in fact a folder with a hidden file indicating that it's executable. The actual binary resides in a subfolder called Content/macOS (or something like that).

                      Not that it makes any difference to anything...
