📁 Resamplers and Wavtools on OpenUtau v0.1.565.0 for MacOS
As of writing this, OpenUtau v0.1.565.0 has released with a new feature that allows you to directly run the Wine path without creating wrappers for each individual resampler. If you are curious about my legacy tutorial please see here.

Before we begin installing resamplers, let's prepare the environment.
Section 1, “Installing Homebrew.”
To install Homebrew you will need to head over to the Homebrew website.
https://brew.sh/
From here, you will want to copy the installation command, and open Terminal. If you are not familiar with Terminal, it is in your Applications > Utilities > Terminal.
In the Terminal control panel, you will want to paste the installation command into the console. It will begin running the installation.
The installation will pause and ask for your computer’s passkey. Input the passkey and the installation will continue.
If you are on Intel, after it installs the, “X code command line tools,” it may run into a fatal error when updating the Homebrew install. Do not worry, head over to, System Preferences > Security and Privacy, and scroll down until you see, “allow install–sh.” Select OK to continue.
Now it will run the rest of the install and you have successfully Homebrewed your Mac.
Section 2, "Installing Wine.”
In order to install Wine, head to the WineHQ website.
https://github.com/Gcenx/macOS_Wine_builds/releases
Download Wine Staging from the Github releases page.
Drag the Wine Staging .zip to your desktop and extract.
Then drag the Wine Staging application to your applications folder.
After extracting the zip, run the Wine Staging application.
The Wine installer will run into an error since it is an external application downloaded from the internet. Head to System Preferences > Security and Privacy, and allow Wine access to run. After this, Wine will be installed to your computer.
After performing these two steps, we will then prepare the environment for the resamplers. Inside of Terminal we will want to begin a new session and run the installation for Wine Crossover.
If brew command is not found, please refer to this stackoverflow thread.
zsh command not found
brew tap gcenx/wine brew install –cask wine-crossover
After running these two commands your environment is set!
Section 3, “Finding your Wine path."
Before we install anything, we must find our Wine path. The install location of your Wine will differ between Intel and Silicon, so if your path isn't the same as shown, do not worry. To find your Wine path, open Terminal and run . . .
which wine
For Intel users, your wine path will either contain 32 or 64.
eg. /usr/local/bin/wine32on64
For Silicon users, your Wine path will be inside homebrew.
eg. /opt/homebrew/bin/wine
Section 4, “Installing Resamplers."
Now that we have our Wine path, we can install resamplers. For a detailed list of resamplers, you may refer to the OpenUtau wiki for a directory of existing and tested resamplers. This tutorial works for both resamplers and wavtools.
Tested Resamplers and Directories
After installing the resampler of your choice, there are two ways to install. You can drag and drop the .exe into the UI, or, you can head over to tools. From there, you can Install Wavtool/Resampler (.exe)...
Now that we have a resampler installed, lets go to the Preferences tab. In Preferences, head to the Advanced tab. From here we will be setting our Wine path directly into OpenUtau.
To set the Wine path, do, Command + Shift + G, and paste in your Wine path by right-clicking the text field.
Alright the Wine path is set!
Return to OpenUTAU, and select, “CLASSIC,” in the resampler field. To the right there will be a cog icon. From here, you will be able to select your downloaded resamplers and wavtools.
Congratulations! You now have installed resamplers on your MacOS system.
