1 suggestionFL Studio has shipped a native Apple Silicon (Universal) build since version 20.8.4, released in 2021. If you are still running the Intel-only version under Rosetta emulation, download the latest installer from image-line.com/fl-studio/download — the official download page automatically detects your Mac's architecture and serves the Universal binary on Apple Silicon machines. Simply run the installer over your existing installation; Image-Line's installer is designed to preserve your projects, settings, and plugin configurations, so there is no need to uninstall first. After updating, your FL Studio will run natively on your Apple Silicon Mac, delivering significantly better CPU performance, lower battery drain, and improved responsiveness compared to the Rosetta-emulated Intel build.
