XenoVerb has been updated to v1.3

Already added this earlier today, but good to note.

Could I ask then if you update the list to post this here too. This system works fine for you as you compile it. I imagine most people do not go through the whole list daily scrutinising for changes. This is increasingly harder as the list grows.

for other KVR members... if like me you clicked the link and saw an article from October.. scroll down a little to see the February 2022 update

UPDATE: February 2022
Liquidsonics has released public preview versions using the latest beta versions of the iLok Fusion protection software. On Feb 2nd 2022, they released an email to users saying…

“This email is a short note to advise that the builds have recently been refreshed - the new 'Release 3 / 02-02-2022' set have been rebuilt using an updated protection suite from Pace intended to address some stability issues.”

From this, it would appear iLok is busy working with their developer clients, like Liquidsonics improving the Apple Silicon versions of their protection software.

Yes, I have been thinking this is needed as well.

Thanks for your understanding. I would also like to add that I appreciate you doing this.

Updated Reaper to note that x64 VST2, VST3, and AU are all now supported via Rosetta 2. I discovered this by testing. I could find nothing about it in the release notes. As of 6.18, only VST2 was bridgable, so I cannot tell when this changed.

Plugin Alliance announcement is back online…

Minimal Audio plugins are supposed to be native. I was interested in checking out Rift 2 & according to a post on their forum their plugins have been native for a while now & it's just the installer that runs under Rosetta. They don't make this very clear on their website.

I checked out the free Rift Feedback lite & it does indeed run natively on my air under Live 11.1. I couldn't check Rift as there is no demo but I imagine it must be native too especially this very new version 2.

EDIT:
Here's a link to the discussion about apple silicon on their forum: https://community.minimal.audio/t/about ... upport/415

SoundToys is public beta!

Interesting. From the beta forum:

The macOS installers install native Apple Silicon versions of iLok License Support and iLok License Manager. If you wish to back out of the beta, you should explicitly uninstall iLok License Support 5.5.0 before installing iLok License Manager 5.4.1 in order to successfully downgrade. You can then run our regular shipping installer to return to our currently shipping version.

After upgrading Soundtoys, iLok Manager was indeed updated, and on first launch it updated itself again to 5.5.0b8.

So that clears out a few more Intel entries from Activity Monitor. And while I was looking, I noticed that Dropbox must have updated itself recently and is now native. Now if only Focusrite, Native Instruments, and Adobe would clean up their mess.

so 5.5.0 a beta it looks like?
if i were to install iLok License Support 5.5.0, it's buisiness as usual for my intel iLok plugins?
there aren't many left, but the Softube and AIR plugins for example?
is there any disadvantage to installing v5.5.0?
