Installing Deimos - having issues

A topic by BuckSatan created 4 days ago Views: 25 Replies: 1

Having a hard time getting this to work on my Mac.  All my other vst plugins work with no problem. Any suggestions of trying to get this installed and not coming back as a virus when searching for it in Ableton 12.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for bringing this up!
All the DAWs I had tried so far didn't complain, but I tried it now in Ableton 12 and get the same result as you are.
So the root problem really is that I didn't get around to sign my plugin yet .. that's something I should eventually do to avoid Mac flagging the plugin as quarantined. That's what's stopping Ableton from loading it.

There is a solution though:

First you'll have to use a terminal to manually remove the quarantine flag from the bundle.
Someone already made a video that shows how:

With the quarantine attribute removed, Ableton should no longer complain about the plugin.
Simply go to Live -> Settings -> Plug-Ins and find the Rescan button, and click it while holding the option/alt key.
That will do a hard rescan, so it will also rescan plugins that it previously failed to scan.

This makes it work on my setup, I hope it works for you too!
