SunVox Audio Unit

Post by coolius »

I love the SunVox sound and want to use it from Logic Pro on my M1 mac. I tried to download the iPad app and Logic shows a SunVox Plugin, but validation fails with the message below. I understand the message and it seems like a dumb reason to fail validation for, but Apple have their principles i guesss... could you put out an update?

Code: Select all

validating Audio Unit SunVox by nira:

Oh... The weirdest error I've ever encountered :)

As far as I know you can ignore this error and still run SunVox in Logic. By enabling checkbox "use" or something like that.

Checking the box to use it anyway works for logic but unfortunately not the Nektarine software for my Nektar keys and pads. Not a huge deal but it definitely would be nice be able to load up anywhere in MacOS that VSTs and AUs are supported, not sure if there’s another workaround I’m missing.

I'm realizing that it's not present in other software because it's an AUv3 rather than a traditional AU, so disregard. Everything's working fine in logic as-is and if you eventually capitalize a letter the warning will go away haha. Really just hoping I could run Relic Waves or Fractal Bits or even Sunvox inside of Renoise as instruments... I love Sunvox especially as a stand-alone do-everything solution but sometimes I want to use my other VSTs when I don't want to spend any time doing sound design starting from a generator.
