Choose the right download

System Download Contents
Windows x64 Download ZIP Ready-to-use Standalone and VST3
Linux x86_64 Download TAR.GZ Ready-to-use Standalone and VST3
macOS 11+ Download builder One-click local build of Universal arm64 + x86_64 Standalone and VST3

Windows x64 — ready-to-use package

  1. Download and extract synth-bass_1.0.2_Windows_x64.zip.
  2. For the standalone version, run uwdevst_bass.exe.
  3. For the plug-in, copy the complete uwdevst_bass.vst3 directory to C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\. Keep its internal Contents directory intact.
  4. Restart the DAW and trigger a VST3 rescan if the instrument is not detected.

The ZIP is portable and does not run an installer. Windows may request administrator permission when copying to the system VST3 directory.

Linux x86_64 — ready-to-use package

  1. Download and extract UWdeVST_Bass_1.0.2_Linux_x86_64.tar.gz.
  2. Run ./Standalone/UWdeVST_Bass. If the executable bit was lost during a copy, run chmod +x Standalone/UWdeVST_Bass once.
  3. For the plug-in, create ~/.vst3 if needed and copy the complete VST3/UWdeVST_Bass.vst3 bundle into it.
  4. Restart the DAW and trigger a VST3 rescan.

This archive is a portable x86_64 package, not an installer. It was built in an Ubuntu 22.04 Docker environment and requires compatible 64-bit Linux runtime, graphical and audio libraries on the host.

macOS Universal — one-click local builder

  1. Download and extract UWdeVST_Bass_1.0.2_macOS_Builder.tar.gz on the Mac.
  2. Double-click BUILD_MAC.command. If Gatekeeper blocks the first launch, Control-click it and choose Open once.
  3. If Apple Command Line Tools are absent, the official Apple installer opens. Finish that installation, then double-click the launcher again.
  4. Wait for Finder to open on the completed output.

No Homebrew, sudo, or manual Terminal build sequence is required. The package contains the synth sources, its assets and JUCE 8.0.4. If a suitable CMake is unavailable, the launcher downloads the pinned official portable CMake archive and verifies its SHA-256.

The result is written below output/<UTC timestamp>/ as UWdeVST_Bass_1.0.2_macOS_universal.zip. It contains Standalone/UWdeVST_Bass.app and VST3/UWdeVST_Bass.vst3. Copy the VST3 bundle to ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/ and rescan the DAW.

The generated binaries target macOS 11.0 or newer, contain both Apple Silicon arm64 and Intel x86_64, and receive a local ad-hoc signature. They are not Apple-notarized; notarized public distribution requires separate Apple Developer credentials.

Integrity and diagnostics

  • GitHub records the size and SHA-256 digest of every uploaded asset.
  • The Linux archive includes BUILD_INFO.txt with its build provenance.
  • The macOS builder checks PACKAGE_SHA256SUMS before and after compilation, validates both architectures and the VST3 entry point, and writes BUILD_RECEIPT.txt, SHA256SUMS and detailed logs beside the result.
