Tracking Apple Silicon Native Hosts, Plugins, Effects

A couple of notables here:

Freakshow Industries 1.02 update has enabled native ARM support on Silicon. I can only attest to DumpsterFire and MISHBY after I installed and verified. There are no release notes nor any other indications of this change, except that the version numbers iterated about a week ago.

Puremagnetik also appears to have started upgrading silently. I only have encountered native Silicon support in Bitfight 83 and Clusters, where there is also now a VST3 build. There is no documentation to indicate this change, but I check every plugin I install.

You made my day! I was eagerly waiting for the Freakshow Industries M1 versions.

It's also nice to have the Puremagnetik ones, I bought a lot of them this year. And I stopped buying them, super frustrated for the lack of updates

Hip Hip Hurrah for Freakshow M1!! They’re the only company that makes me want to pay full price for their plugins. Now, I eagerly await their upcoming Dick Smasher. I have no idea what it is, but I will happily pay full price for it when it drops.

Focusrite FAST Balancer 1.0.0 is native.

I see Nimble Argent compressor is now M1 compatible. https://nimble.itch.io/argent/devlog/38 ... -supported

Novonotes Ambience Enhancer Lite, a freebie, is now M1 native (even when it's still listed in the page as compatible through Rosetta).

Be aware that this new version of Ambience Enhancer Lite has lost the buttons to auto-adjust the levels for each parameter based on the signal.

So if this feature was important to you, don't update.

Incredible and underrated tool, to create extra reverb and space for a mix, without mudding the sound signal.

There is also a new paid version, Ambience Enhancer, with 64 channels for surround mix. But I don't know if this version is also M1 native. Two stereo channels are more than enough for my Bitwig workflow.

EDIT: Toying with this new version, the option to auto adjust the levels is still there, but now you need to click on the bar.

backmask is native. download from the "legacy installers" page to get the newest download.. at least that's what worked for me.

puremagnetik is going through all of them but in phases. he said he's getting to it. some of the newer ones are native. i guess he's got to implement signing/notarizing the plug ins as well.

backmask is still intel. hopefully it goes native soon.

The website says that Backmask is native.

weird. i just downloaded and installed and activity monitor says it's intel. also, "suspicious package" says it requires rosetta.

edit: ok, re-downloaded from a different link on the site.. where it says "Legacy Downloads" but also has the current installer of 1.02. this time it shows up as native and suspicious package says it has /mixed install components of apple silicon and rosetta 2" which i guess is because there's an AAX installer in there and it can't be native yet for reasons.

when i downloaded and installed earlier it was directly from the product page. weird.

Regarding Freakshow's Backmask. This is what I get when I run the VST3 version (v1.0.2) through Archichect:

Backmask Archichect.png

It appears to work natively in Logic 10.7.4 and Cubase 12.0.30.

Any know if TC Electronic System 6000 stuff is Native yet?

Caelum Audio Dustbin is native out the door (1.0.0).

WA Production Instacomposer is M1 native. One of these weird companies in which it's impossible to find information in its web about what products are native or only Rosetta compatible, and the only way to figure out this is to install each individual demo.
