There is no standard terminology. For many devs, compatible does not mean native, but that it works under Rosetta2.

Only AU version is native. VST3 is not native and no VST2 version.

Ableton Live 11.1 - VST3 currently unavailable when DAW is ran Natively. Please run entire DAW through Rosetta 2 to allow for VST3.

I can confirm Inflator VST3 is running natively

ps. I believe it is the same with what they call fully supported, for the rest mentioned plug-ins

Yep, just had an email from their support:

Just to let you know we have released an Applie Silicon Native patch update for the Oxford Inflator, which you can download from the link below -

​Oxford Inflator v4

We've also released updates for our Limiter, TransMod and VoxDoubler plugins.

Sorry for the long delay in getting these releases out the door, and more updates will follow this in the coming weeks!

Kind Regards,

Mikey - Sonnox

Just tried the VST3 on my M1 MacBook and it is using over 30 percent CPU (honestly I don't trust the meters too much on an M1) however the AU version is using 1 percent CPU. Something is wrong somewhere...

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this before, but there's a really handy app called PlugInfo (http://www.thinkersnacks.com/as-pluginfo.html) that lets you take a look at all the plug-ins you have on your Apple Silicon computer to see which ones are native or not. Here's an example of what it looks like, and of course like 80-90% of the plug-ins I have that still need to go native are from Native Instruments. Complete B.S.

Can anyone comment on the stability of the Goodhertz m1 beta plugs? I would really like to run them but don't want to mess around if they aren't pretty close to release stability.

I use Tupe almost everyday since the Beta release and I never had any problem or issue with it.

Yes about 30% over here. We should inform Sonnox about it.

FYI Mathew Lane is now Silicon Native. They did a mailout a few days ago to announce

So, I have just updated Steinberg Wavelab AS native
:)
All I’m waiting for now is NI and Reasonstudios to finally release their updated AS apps.
At least Reasonstudios have a roadmap of sorts to do it but, NI..?!

Sonnox response:

Thanks for getting in touch with us, and for bringing this to our attention.

We've passed the issue on to our developers this morning as a priority and they are confident they've identified the cause of the problem.

We'll have an updated patch with a fix in place as quickly as possible! Hopefully within the next day, or sooner.

Thanks again.

Kind Regards,

Mikey - Sonnox
