AI Recommendation
1 suggestionOzone 9 Elements is an AAX plugin hosted by Pro Tools, and iZotope announced Apple Silicon native support for Ozone 9 Elements back in 2022. To update to the native version, launch the iZotope Product Portal (iZotope's plugin and license manager) and check for available updates — it will download and install the native Apple Silicon build automatically. Make sure Pro Tools itself is on version 2023.6 or later, as older Pro Tools versions do not support native AAX plugins on Apple Silicon. After updating both the plugin and Pro Tools, you will see better performance and battery efficiency compared to the Intel build running under Rosetta. If you do not see an update available in Product Portal, verify that your iZotope account is logged in and up to date, then restart Product Portal and check again.
