MS-20FX is a professional AAX audio plugin from KORG that models the classic KORG MS-20 analog synthesizer, allowing music producers and sound designers to use the iconic instrument within Avid Pro Tools and other AAX-compatible DAWs. The plugin reproduces the MS-20's distinctive sound and modulation capabilities with voltage-controlled oscillators, filters, and envelope generators. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionMS-20FX is an AAX plugin that runs within Avid Pro Tools, so updating it requires ensuring both Pro Tools itself and the KORG plugin are on native Apple Silicon builds. First, verify that Pro Tools is running version 2023.6 or later — that is the first Pro Tools release with full native Apple Silicon support. Open Pro Tools, go to Help → About Pro Tools, and check your version; if you are on an older build, update Pro Tools through Avid Application Manager (your primary update channel for Avid products). Once Pro Tools is current, visit the KORG website to download or update MS-20FX — KORG ships the native Universal Binary alongside the Intel version, so downloading the latest installer from their plugin download page will give you the native build. Reinstall the plugin into your Pro Tools plugin folder (typically ~/Library/Application Support/Avid/Pro Tools/Plug-Ins), restart Pro Tools, and the native version will be recognised. If you originally obtained MS-20FX through a paid license, you may need to reauthorise it with KORG's licensing system — check KORG's support documentation for your plugin's specific activation method.
