Tracking Apple Silicon Native Hosts, Plugins, Effects

Fabfilter has AAX m1 native

[kidslow]

NUGEN has been rolling out M1 in dribs and drabs. The Focus Bundle (Monofilter, Stereoizer, StereoPlacer), SigMod, and AB Assist are also native Silicon.

SEQ-S/SEQ-ST and Aligner are still not. Some others also may not be.

They put the release notes in the product manuals and notate when Silicon support has been added.

Sonic Charge Cyclone 1.1 (Free)

Massive X was updated today to version 1.4.3. The notes said (besides some preset improvements) that a silicon AAX was added and that the VST3 silicon version was made Ventura compatible. I find that last bit odd because the previous VST3 version, 1.4.2 seemed to work fine on Ventura 13.2.1.

LostIn70s (https://lostin70s.com) appears to have updated their plugins for Apple Silicon:

BassDeluxe 1.3.0
BullDeluxe 1.1.2
DevilSpring 1.2.0
HaNon B70 1.5.3
Harmonus 1.0.2
KeysOfThe70s 2.2.2
LivePedalboard 1.0.2 (already on list)
ModernDeluxe 2.3.1
ToneDeluxe V2 2.2.2
Torero 1.0.6

Adding official compatibility doesn't really mean anything. It may have worked 100% fine with the previous version, but when they add official compatibility all it means is that they've verified that the new operating system doesn't break anything or introduce new bugs with their software.

They must have a bunch of different tests they run through with each plug-in on the new operating system to verify everything is running smoothly and then they add official compatibility once it all checks out.

A reasonable explanation. Thanks.

waldorf updated Largo to v1.8 with native apple silicon support but for me it's still running as intel.

info below is only available in the installer and the specs on their site have not been updated and still say "intel CPU"

Largo Version Information

Changes in Version 1.8.0

- Native Apple Silicon support
- MacOS Ventura and Windows 11 supported
- Bug fixes

Additional information

Latest Largo updates are always available in your MyWaldorf account via the Waldorf Website.


still running as intel here via the hosting service app. other devs had this same problem.. still waiting on the update from inGRM to solve this for AU version. with inaGRM the standalone and vst3 are apple silicon native but for some reason the AU runs as intel.



edit: emailed waldorf about the M1 showing as intel and got this reply:

thanks for your comment.

The new Largo installer is M1 native compatible.

Regarding the issue that It's shown as intel.... I've forwarded it to the developer.

Quinto from Sknote had this same problem with some installers and said it was a "stupid naming convention they missed" and he fixed it right away. i forwarded that info to waldorf and inaGRM. hopefully they can sort it out. it seems to be a common problem now. waldorf is the 3rd dev to have this issue. maybe there's others?

I have Classic and Evolution plugins running in silicon but not Spectral

Is this fixed yet? - it seems the installers do not install Silicon Native VST3 versions for the Spectral Transform tools

nope. not fixed. i've emailed them every couple of weeks to get an update and to offer to beta test the installers if needed. emailed them yesterday and got this reply:

3.11 has still the problem you noticed earlier.
We have a 3.11.1 which is buggy, and we are working on a 3.12, AAX native...
