    wanna get this working for u. Mine is v similar ,Mac Pro intel 2019 , sequoia 15.6, crossover 24.07, logic 11.2.2.only difference is crossover.try again on next release of logic if we can't work it out. do you have MainStage ? maybe try it in that just to see , if u have it.no worries if not.like I said before randomly my logic played up the other day, reinstalled it twice and now cool. first time its done that.might still be probs with this last version. maybe install again a couple times from apple see if that fixes something. did in my case. I run out of ideas as to why it's not showing.

    when u do apple I get info on the au component , what do the 3 permissions say? eg read and write

    This is possibly what you have going on. It probably applies to more than just Sonoma, because you know that Apple is not going to change anything in MacOS or Logic, over Audiogridder:

    audiogridder does not work in Logic Pro 11 on intel mac
    ChatGPT said:


    You're definitely not alone—AudioGridder has had known compatibility issues with Logic Pro 11 on Intel Macs, particularly when both the server and client are running on Sonoma (macOS 14.x) and Logic Pro is updated to version 11.0.1. Users have reported that attempting to load the AudioGridder plugin—even with mono or stereo files—results in immediate crashes GitHub.

    What’s Going On
    • Crashes on load: A common report indicates that loading the AudioGridder plugin in Logic Pro 11.0.1 causes a crash every time GitHub.
    • Instrument plugin visibility issues: Some users on various Macs (including Intel i7 iMacs) found that the instrument version of AudioGridder still shows as "validated" in the plugin manager but doesn't appear in the instrument drop-down or GUI list GitHub.
    These symptoms suggest there's a deeper incompatibility at play between AudioGridder’s AU plugin and Logic Pro 11's updated architecture—especially under Sonoma.

    Troubleshooting & Workarounds
    Step Action
    1⃣ Check your AudioGridder version — ensure you're using the latest stable Beta (1.2.0 Beta 11 or later), which rolled out improved AU compatibility and stability fixes audiogridder.com.
    2⃣ Use VST instead of AU — if possible, load AudioGridder as a VST plugin instead of AU in Logic. Many users reported better resilience using VST paths.
    3⃣ Downgrade Logic or macOS — if Logic Pro is updated to 11.0.1 on Sonoma and crashes persist, consider temporarily reverting to Logic Pro 10.8.x or macOS Ventura, where AudioGridder had a better track record.
    4⃣ Keep an eye on GitHub discussions — the developer is aware and has acknowledged needing an interim fix around I/O negotiation for Logic v11 GitHub+1.
    TL;DR:
    AudioGridder currently has known stability problems with the AU plugin in Logic Pro 11.0.1 on Intel Macs running Sonoma—including crashes and missing instrument plugin entries. Your best bet is to:

    1. Use the latest Beta version of AudioGridder,

    2. Stick with the VST version, if supported,

    3. And if all else fails, consider rolling back to earlier versions of Logic or macOS until a fix arrives.
    Let me know if you'd like help picking the most stable plugin format (AU vs VST) or rolling back safely—happy to assist!

    permissions look right. something did change in logic 11.2 some plugins weren't available it broke never saw that before , loads online about it also. they updated kinda straight away but something might still be broke ,no idea why then.if u think of anything else that might cause it let me know n ill look at mine.but still almost identical specs apart from crossover version.
