@d-healey Thank you so much, this has been a huge help. I’ll keep learning so that I can become someone who helps others someday as well.

@d-healey Thank you for your detailed response!

I understand that since I started development relatively recently, releasing a VST2 plugin doesn’t apply to me.

To resolve this, I should release my plugin as VST3 and obtain Steinberg’s VST3 license, which is required as a standard step.

Regarding the macOS installer, I learned that an Apple Developer Account is required. However, upon looking into it, I initially thought it was only available for corporations, but now I understand that as an individual plugin developer, I can’t do that part.

Thank you for clarifying!

While developing, I’ve come to realize that every plugin involves a tremendous amount of hard work and dedication.
I’ve also become incredibly aware of how terrifying it is that there are so many people out there who hack programs, :)
