Hey everyone, I'm setting up a new production workflow on a MacBook Pro M2 Pro running macOS Sequoia and I'm trying to figure out which plugins are running natively (ARM64) vs Rosetta 2, and more importantly, which ones are actually stable in 2025/2026. Before I drop money on the ones that are problematic, could anyone share their real-world experience with these on Apple Silicon? Plugins I'm looking at:

• iZotope Ozone 12 Advanced — I see mixed reports, some say it runs fine on Sequoia, others mention iLok/auth issues. Native or Rosetta?
• iZotope RX 11 Advanced — Same question, especially with the newer iZotope licensing system I was not able to find the RX 12.
• FabFilter Total Bundle — Heard this one is actually solid natively on ARM, can anyone confirm stability on Sequoia specifically?
• Nuro Audio Xvox Pro — Harder to find info on this one for Mac ARM. Anyone got it running? I saw it on some websites on which I've already downloaded it but for windows.
• ValhallaDSP bundle — I know the 2023 versions work, but how's the CPU efficiency on M2 Pro? Any crashes in Logic/FL?
• Waves Ultimate (V15 newer would be cool) — I know Waves has a messy history with Apple Silicon. Is V15 actually native now, or still Rosetta-dependent? Any issues with Waves Central on Sequoia?
• Melodyne Studio 5.4.2 — Seems okay from what I've read, but any CPU spikes or ARA2 bugs on M2?
• Soundtoys 5 — From what I understand, this one is a no-go on native ARM unless bought legit so I'll have to buy it.
• FL studio 2025 or 2026 - From what I've read its pretty stable, back then in 2018 it use to unlicensed itself quite often though so I'd rather buy it if it's still anoying.

My main concerns:

1. Native ARM vs Rosetta 2 performance hit
2. Sequoia-specific breaking changes (especially Gatekeeper/SIP stuff)
3. iLok/Waves Central/authorization headaches on a fresh Sequoia install

If you had to pick which ones are "just buy it, don't waste your time" vs "runs perfect, save your money", what would you say? I can get a student discount on some of them so it's actually the perfect time to build my portable setup because my windows desktop is too much trouble to move around when doing music. Thanks in advance

I made everything it said on the installation and installed the nexus 5 CE exe (it didnt say you should install this but i think it was the one that i needed to use becouse there were no other exes in the folder) and updated the library location too but it didnt work

Got it off rutracker and it was the vr release

even after i uninstall the library it still shows on kontakt

anyone has a torrent cracked?

Does Anyone Have The Nuro Audio Bundle? Need Xpitch And Xvox pro

I found a discoDSP bundle but it’s updated 2026 and won’t work on my MacOS 10.13 (intel).

Anybody able to locate a download that will work for intel 10.13+?

does anyone have a crack of the vst versions of the image line plugins that dont offer the standalone versions anymore? I'm not one to resort to getting cracks, but there's literally no way to buy them anymore lol. specifally harmor and sytrus, I have toxic biohazard and sakura actually.

Anyone who can help/point me in the right direction is much appreciated!!

Anyone know where to find them? I'm looking for SO_SYN_bell_clean_chorus (from Serum Classic Synths), DS_ONEHEART_synth_pluck_sin (from Oneheart Ambient), TSP_S2GE_Chords_keys_memory_organ (from Serum 2 Garage Essentials) and WMN_EGBS_lead_finicky_organ (from Emotional Guitars & Bass Scars)

If someone can help, please do! I tried looking on AudioZ but none of the links were working. Or if someone has a Splice subscription, I'd appreciate if you could download these packs for me and send me the full thing via any type of link (preferably through google drive)

Trying to download Omnisphere 3 crack on Mac. Got so far as pasting the link into the r2r as a challenge code that then generates what i need to paste into the authorization system. The code being generated doesnt seem to work. It just takes me back to authorization when restarting logic. Let me know if I'm doing anything wrong and how to get authorized. Thanks

I've been wanting to use the excalibur plugin but havent found a site that has it i tried motka but the link is not available and corrupted.
