        @Rikahana no, you must compile your plugin on both systems (mac & Windows). The same goes for installers. if vius don't have a mac i would advise you to get a cheap mac mini 2014 which will do the job.

              Before distribution of commercial plugins, be aware that you need below licenses and paperwork.

              • HISE License – You need to contact to Christoph.

              • JUCE License – Paid, you can get subscription or perpetual license.

              • VST3 License - You can get from Steinberg for free. (If you didn't get the VST2 license for your brand before November 2018, you can't sell / distribute VST2 (.dll) plugins. Steinberg dropped VST2 Licenses since that date. But you can get VST3 License now)

              • Apple Developer Program – For plugin signing and notarization that has been a must since macOS Catalina - (Costs annually $90)

              • Avid Developer License – if you think AAX plugins, you can get the license from Avid Developer program for free.

              develop Branch / XCode 13.1
              macOS Monterey / M1 Max

                Before distribution of proprietary plugins... they don't have to be commercial.

                  Yeah the term of proprietary would sit better for that ;)

                      Price doesn't matter, is it closed or open source?

                        I'm a stupid beginner in any form of software development and all I know is that it just runs on samples from a hr1 file and I don't know about the images used for it's GUI (Whether I have to take them with me or not)
