This is solved for now. I followed these steps:
- Remove Gig Performer from Full Disk Access temporarily;
- Launch Gig Performer and load MG3 again;
- When the macOS prompt appears, allow access;
- Re-add Gig Performer to Full Disk Access.
I should add that I didn’t allow the system to quit and reopen as I did previously. Maybe this is why it worked this time?
Anyway, success. FWIW, the app is codesigned as confirmed by terminal:
codesign -dv /Applications/MIDI\ Guitar\ 3.app
Thanks @dhj for your patience and assistance.
