    Most recently, the Current by minimal audio synthesizer was released on our favorite audioz. People wrote in the comments that you need to write in the terminal to make it work something like / sudo nano
    Please help me cause post was deleted

    sudo nano /etc/hosts

    when you are done editing, Control + O to save the file, hit return key to OK it. Control+X to exit Nano.

    add this at the bottom of the file:

    0.0.0.0 api.minimalplugins.com
    0.0.0.0 api.minimal.audio
    0.0.0.0 graphql.minimalplugins.com
    0.0.0.0 raphql.minimal.audio
    0.0.0.0 events.minimalplugins.com
    0.0.0.0 events.minimal.audio

    Code:
    sudo nano /etc/hosts
    (enter admin password of your computer, not visible while typing)

    add the minmal audio website (and, if necessary, all its variations) to the list with 127.0.0.1 as resolving address(es).
    So that, when any Minimal Audio instance tries to "call home", it will be redirected to your localhost instead.

    save & exit as clone already described.

    please use a useful thread title, if its about Minimal Audio Current, write that in the title, otherwise its hard to judge from your title.

    I fixed that for you this time.

    127.0.0.1 is the loopback interface, and 0.0.0.0 is not routable, and your computer does not even create the packet to attempt a connection.
    If your hosts file is hundreds of entries long, or more like some people do; loopback is slower.

    Even if plugins like Evoke get their calls home stopped I hope it doesn’t eat tons of resources on my MacBook Pro 2018 like it does on my ROG Ally, but evoke is the only minimal effect that is hungry like that I believe

    Thank you guys for help but I didn't mean simply adding prohibition hosts to the file. There were separate manipulations with the library folder through the terminal. Now I get this error from my BItwig Studio
    com.bitwig.flt.library.metadata.reader.exception.CouldNotReadMetadataException: could not read metadata: Communications error with plugin host process
    exit code:137
    stdout:
    [2025-12-25 20:43:7.963 BITWIG_PLUGIN_HOST info] PluginHost: Reading VST 3 plugin metadata for /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/Current.vst3

    ok gyus. Gemini fixed that for me
    i just wanna share to you



    function prep() {
    local target="$1"
    if [ -e "$target" ]; then
    echo "Processing: $target"
    sudo xattr -cr "$target"
    sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine "$target"
    sudo chmod -R 755 "$target"
    sudo chown -R "$USER" "$target"
    sudo codesign --force --sign - "$target"
    echo "Done! You can now rescan the plugin in Bitwig."
    else
    echo "Error: File not found at $target"
    fi
    }

    prep "/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/Current.vst3"



    just copy and paste it to terminal
