    Me too! It's really helped over the years.
    But mine is Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Sierra 10.12.6!
    Plus I have Catalina running in a VM.

    Has anyone figured a way around the no GUI in 10.5.1 issue for a handful of plugs?

    Altiverb is one that has the black GUI... It still works in Ableton latest update though on current Catalina.. So I dont think its a Catalina problem, something to do with the DAWs. Hopefully it gets figured out.

    it just a faggot apple team
    try to open the terminal and type
    HTML:
    sudo chmod -R 777 /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins
    then restart the computer , then try to open the daw again

    if it not works then download the Logic Pro X 10.4.8
    then copy the /Frameworks/MAPlugInGUI.framework from the app itself , to Logic Pro x 10.5.1
    if this not work then try to find which Frameworks make all this problem !
    just don't forget to make backup to folder which you work if something wrong happen to the logic you can alway's backup it!
    (just copy paste the whole folder of /Frameworks from LPX 10.5.1)

    Any possible mods/fixes for Cubase 10.5 on Catalina? I don't see any framework files inside the Cubase application.... Forgive me of my ignorance pertaining to this kind of stuff....

    you can try to open the terminal and chmod the folder MacOS after you type this command
    HTML:
    sudo chmod -R 777 "Drag and Drop the folder MacOS into terminal"
    basically you type sudo chmod -R 777 " just don't forget to make a space after 777 "

    or second thing which you can try is to download older version which has no bug of the GUI
    take this file's and replace them with the older one
    1. you create backup of this 2 files
    2. you take the from older cubase both files I mean the same file
    then replace them
    this is the image of the files

    @SmokerNzt I forgot now that I think of it... The black GUI started when I updated Catalina to current version. So nothing had changed with Logic or Cubase at the time... I tried your trick with both Cubase & Logic unfortunately it hasn't worked. Logic won't even open when the newer framework is replaced by the older. Its odd though because it still works even with the latest Ableton beta update from 3 days ago... Thank you for trying to help though. If you have anymore tips please feel free to drop a line.

    ATTENTION: IMPORTANT

    DON'T replace the "libstdc++.6.0.9.dylib" in Catalina > usr > lib with a patched older one!!! It breaks the App Store. And you need the app store for installing udates!

    Did anyone succeed to make Altiverb work in Logic Pro X 10.5 ?

    I did replace the /Frameworks/MAPlugInGUI.framework from 10.4.8 to 10.5.1 but Logic crashes

    (Catalina 10.5.5)

    How do you manage to swap the files from within catalina? I have to boot from another sytem to be able to get write access to the usr > lib folder and replace the file, although SIP is disabled.
