About This App

Dither is an AAX audio plugin for Avid Pro Tools that applies dithering to audio signals during mixing and mastering. Dithering reduces quantization noise when reducing bit depth, making it useful for professional engineers who are mastering to lower bit-depth formats or managing signal precision in multitrack sessions. It integrates directly into Pro Tools' plugin chain and is part of Avid's pro audio ecosystem. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.

Dither is an AAX plugin that ships as part of Pro Tools, so updating it requires updating Pro Tools itself to a version that includes the native Apple Silicon build. Pro Tools has shipped native Apple Silicon versions since version 2023.6 (released in 2023). If your Pro Tools is Intel-only or an older release, use Avid Application Manager (Avid's vendor installer and update tool) to upgrade Pro Tools to the latest version; this will automatically update all bundled plugins including Dither to their native Apple Silicon builds. Launch Avid Application Manager, select Pro Tools, and click Install or Update. Alternatively, if you manage Pro Tools through Avid's cloud subscription service, the cloud installer will similarly provision the native version. After Pro Tools upgrades to a native build, Dither will be native as well — there is no separate plugin updater for Dither on its own.
