Heya,

i need a hand please. ( M2mac / Ventura )
The plugin is a tipp, it´s freeware, it´s from Github.
It was just posted by @3lu5iv3

One has to disable gatekeeper, respectivly add some specific commands into "Terminal".
i don´t get it !

this is the link to the procedure
https://disable-gatekeeper.github.io/ description:

i´d like to try the option: "disable gatekeeper for one application only"....using "Terminal"
(allready tryed "disable gatekeeper" / No good idea anyway / i was not able to feed terminal my password )

it says:
Using Terminal

1. Open a terminal by pressing Cmd + Space, enter “Terminal” and open the application.
2. Run the following command: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /path/to/Application.app. The path is case-sensitive and must point to the application bundle. (You can use Tab to complete file paths.)
vs. point 2. :_
i placed the Spectral Compressor.vst3 in my vst3 plugin folder.
so what do i type into "Terminal" ?
it says: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /path/to/Application.app

i tryed:
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Lybrary/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/SpectralCompressor.vst3
RE in Terminal: xattr: No such file:

guess i need help for a dumb noob

"Plugin has turned Drug now"....and the business knows it.

You spelled Library wrong

You can drag the file into Terminal and it'll automatically add the correct path.

Ohh, ......checked !

Terminal takes it now. (from what i can tell)
also: the path looks completly different than what i typed in.
But: rescanning the plugins from my host (GP) yields still to a failure message.
( ~Can´t open the plugin cause unable to scan for malware )

there is still something. No clue what
"Plugin has turned Drug now"....and the business knows it.
