ORBIT v0.2.1 — the Audio Unit installs again (macOS)

A fix release for ORBIT only. Free and open-source (AGPLv3), signed and notarized, as everything OVNI ships.

What was wrong

The v0.2.0 macOS installer declared its ORBIT bundles as version 0.1.1 (the plug-in had been rebuilt without bumping its version). On a Mac that already had ORBIT installed, the Installer saw "0.1.1 already present", skipped the Audio Unit and only refreshed the VST3 — so ORBIT disappeared from AU hosts such as Logic. Thanks to the user who reported it the same day.

What changed

  • OVNI-ORBIT-v0.2.1.pkg — VST3 + AU, universal (Apple Silicon + Intel), macOS 11+. Both bundles now declare 0.2.1 and the installer no longer compares bundle versions: it always writes both formats, over any previous install. Verified on a Mac that already had ORBIT 0.1.1 installed.
  • No DSP or UI changes. Built from the same source as v0.2.0 (ovniaudio/orbita at tag v0.2.1), rebuilt with a current toolchain; deployment targets unchanged (macOS 11 on Apple Silicon, macOS 10.14 on Intel).
  • The installed NOTICE.txt now carries the CIPIC HRTF Database copyright notice, as its terms of use require.
  • OVNI-ORBIT-v0.2.1-Windows.zip — VST3 x64, byte-identical to the v0.2.0 ZIP (Windows was never affected), re-published under the new name so every ORBIT download carries one version.

If you were affected

Run the new .pkg — it installs over the old one. Then rescan plug-ins in your DAW (Logic: Settings → Plug-in Manager → Reset & Rescan Selection).

SUPERNOVA

Unchanged — get it from v0.2.0 or from ovniaudio.com.
