      So trying ot do this and get so far but then XCode tells me:

      ❌ error: Unable to create directory: /Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins/RetroVolt.aaxplugin/Contents (Permission denied)

      any idea how to get past this problem?

      I recall on the windows platform I had to do some compiling of the AAX tool kit - and I found the equivalent for mac but it wont compile as its 32-bit so Xcode wont run it...again no idea how to solve this...either....

        @Lindon said in AAX compile on a Mac:

        it wont compile as its 32-bit

        I think 32-bit has been depreciated? Can you compile 64bit?

            Looks to me as if you don‘t run Xcode as admin because the copy step to the root library folder fails.

                well I checked my system preferences and I am the admin...so is there something I need to set for XCode?

                    @Lindon I see you spoke about compiling the SDK. I don't understand if you succeeded though, so that might be your problem here...
                    I just compiled the last SDK yesterday and it works...

                      Try starting xcode from the command line with sudo, then it should work.

                        @ustk -- nope not compiled the SDK -- what did you do to get it to compile?

                          OK so I ran XCode as sudo, and it still fails like this

                          f4f783c5-2c36-4ce6-aa2b-4c3dff3fc221-image.png

                          that "ld: library not found for -lAAXLibrary_libpp" might be the indicator that Im missing something in the AAX SDK....

                            @Lindon Open HISE/tools/SDK/AAX/Libs/AAXLibrary/MacBuild/AAXLibrary.xcodeproj and perform a standard "Build for profiling"
                            Note that the root folder has been renamed just AAX

                              @Lindon Yes that's it, library not found means you are compiling without having the lib in the SDK... Compile the SDK first and it should work

                                @ustk OK so I down load the SDK (AAX_SDK_2p2p2) extract it to a drive.

                                -- go to: /AAXSDK_2p2p2/libs/MacBuild and double click on AAXLibrary.xcodeproj

                                -- xcode opens and tells me:

                                43dbf5bb-650b-4f01-a8b1-7d490fce4a65-image.png

                                --stuck!

                                  @Lindon Why don't you use the 2.3.2 version?

                                          @ustk yep well that worked - so what do put in the tools/SDK folder for HISE now? the entire AAX_SDK_2p3p2 folder? do I rename it AAX SDK ?
