Thanks for the link, but we should to think that our machine resources that are limited

To use a virtual machine you have to share the resources (memory, processor, etc) between the real OS and the virtual machine, and in my case, if I do that, I will have problems mixing and mastering my songs

You suggestion is a possibility, yes, but in my case is not the ideal one

The other option is to use a dual boot loader to load Windows on my Mac, with the possibility to use both (one or other) when I need... but I will be sharing the same hard disk losting a part of the hard disk for one or other OS

I prefer don't use a plugin instead of pay a high cost to do it possible

Yes, I think so too

Since it is an open source project, you may want to try compiling it for macOS and see if it works (it's quite possible that the developer didn't make a macOS version simply because he didn't have a macOS machine, so if you get it working maybe you can send the update to the original developer)

Nowadays that chatgpt is "smart enough" to make VST plugins, maybe it can add a macOS build to existing plugin code ?

Usually people that do plugins for Mac have Macs as their development machines. You can't create AU plugins anywhere else.
