Zebra2, zebralette and z-rev red label on Mac

[Mans]

Hi,

The VST versions of above mentioned plugins all have a red label assigned to them on the Mac which I can not turn off.



Why do they have this label exactly?

I can turn it off just fine, like any other labelled file
Although this made me notice, I don't have zrev or zebralette components anymore, even though they show up in my host and I can use them just fine. odd

They are all inside the .component package. Right click on the file and choose show package contents. I believe the RTAS version works this way as well.

I can't. The option to do so is 'greyed' out.

ahh... didn't see his screenshot was for the VST version. maybe they were never there before.

as for the reason behind the label, perhaps Zebra, being better than every other plugin in your folder, needs a way to clearly differentiate itself

yeah I couldn't do it on the VST either, weird.

We are in agreement there But still I would to know the real reasoning and why I can't turn it off especially.

I think you need write permissions on the files first...

The AU version had the same label and I could turn it off. I'm also the sole user of this computer so shouldn't I have those rights automatically?

It's not a big deal of course just found it odd (and it looks unpleasant).

Let me make clear I wasn't knocking your plug-in collection, I used 'your' in the most general sense, i.e., everyone

Not necessarily, right click on the VST folder and the Plug-ins folder to check the permissions, it's under properties.

This was it. The permissions were not expanded the first time I checked so I missed it. Thanks from a mac noob
