Dear Customers,
With the release of V Collection 8.2 and FX Collection 2.1, many Arturia software titles can now run natively on M1-equipped computers.
If you are an owner of such devices, and you want to learn more about the M1 compatibility of Arturia products, please refer to the following sections.
The ASC is now M1-native and can run smoothly in both M1 and Rosetta mode.
Note: You will be asked to install Rosetta when installing the new ASC.
If you own an M1 computer, please proceed with the following steps.
First of all, remember to download the latest version of the software products you own from Arturia's website, in order to benefit from the latest compatibility features, and in order to run them on your machine.
From there, your computer will be identified as a different device, and you'll have to activate your products again in the ASC.
Note: If you don't have any activation left, you will have to go on My Arturia to get back your activation from your "last device".
To learn how to recover an activation from your account, please refer to the How to register and activate my product FAQ article.
For any other questions regarding the ASC, please check the following articles:
Finally, for more details about specific software instruments and plug-ins, please refer to the following sections.
All the instruments from V Collection 8.2 are M1-native.
To check if your instrument runs under Rosetta, or natively, you can go and check in the "About" section of the plug-in for the build number.
If the build number contains "ARM64", the plug-in is run natively on your M1-equipped computer.
If it contains "Rosetta", the plug-in is run under "Rosetta mode".
For standalone instruments, you can also check that in the "Applications" folder of your computer. Right-click on the plug-in, then click on "Get info". From here, you can see if "Open with Rosetta" is ticked or not.
In DAWs, plug-ins are run natively or in "Rosetta mode" depending on the DAW versions and parameters.
Pigments has now been updated to be M1-native, just like the other V Collection software products above.
All the effects from FX Collection 2.1 are M1-native.
To check if your effect runs under Rosetta, or natively, you can go and check in the "About" section of the plug-in for the build number.
If the build number contains "ARM64", the plug-in is run natively on your M1-equipped computer.
If it contains "Rosetta", the plug-in is run under "Rosetta mode".
Plug-ins are run natively or in "Rosetta mode" depending on the DAW versions and parameters.
Remember to update to the latest version of the PolyBrute Connect.
Our team worked on making it possible to run it with the latest version of the Arturia Software Center for M1-equipped machines. However, it doesn't natively run yet.
Please note that it may not run as a plugin in some DAWs for which M1-native plugins are necessary.
It is not planned for Analog Lab 4 to be updated to be M1-compatible, and it will stop working on M1 computers when the Arturia Software Center (ASC) is updated for M1-compatibility.
Make sure to move to Analog Lab V as soon as possible to be able to keep using Analog Lab.
Note: Analog Lab V has been updated at the same time as the V Collection for M1-compatibility.
Note: You can import Factory presets from Analog Lab 4 to Analog Lab V by ticking the Include Legacy Sounds box featured in Analog Lab V's main menu.
Note: User presets are usually automatically imported from Analog Lab 4 to Analog Lab V. If it is not the case, you can import them manually by fetching them in the local "Presets" folder of Analog Lab 4.
Only some selected legacy products are updated to be M1-compatible in "Rosetta mode".
Here is the list:
Here is the list:
- B-3 V1
- Jup-8 V3
- Piano V1
- Spark 2
- Stage-73 V1
Note: these legacy products will not be developped again to run natively on M1 computers.
FL Studio:
Starting from version 20.8.4 of FL Studio, FL Studio cannot support both M1-native plug-ins/effects and plug-ins/effects used in "Rosetta mode".
Until the effects are made to be M1-native, please refer to the "HOW TO SWITCH BETWEEN APPLE SILICON AND ROSETTA MODE" section of this article to have FL Studio operate in "Rosetta mode".
When in possession of a Mac computer equipped with an M1 chip, you will be offered to download Rosetta the first time you want to open a software application made for Mac computers equipped with Intel chips.
Once installed, you will be able to use the said applications developed for Intel chips on your M1-equipped computer.
For more information about "Rosetta" and its use, please refer to this article from Apple.
