AU universal binary macOS Sequoia and Xcode 16.2

Audio Plugins
1

Hi,

I just noticed that compiling AU plugins using Xcode 16.2 does no longer create universal binaries. To be perfectly honest I don’t know whether this is a known issue because I haven’t touched my plugin code for a while.
However, my Producer file is set to ‘arm64 x86_64’ and I only get a arm64 version of the AU plugin. Same happens if I create a simple plugin from scratch using Producer. The vst3 version instead compiles fine, arm64 and x86_64, checked using lipo, I am running juce 8.0.6. on Sequoia.

Could anyone bring in some light?
Thanks,

At the top of the Xcode window where you select the target, make sure it says Any Mac instead of My Mac.

This did the trick, thank you! Still don’t get why the vst3 compiles universal with setting myMac though. Anyway, thanks a lot!
