AI Recommendation
1 suggestionFabFilter Pro-Q (Mono) is a VST plugin component that runs inside a DAW, not a standalone application, so it cannot be updated on its own. To get a native Apple Silicon build of this plugin, you need to update FabFilter's host product or reinstall it through FabFilter's official installer. FabFilter ships native Apple Silicon builds of Pro-Q through their download page and their update mechanism. Visit the FabFilter website, download the latest installer for Pro-Q, and run it to replace your current plugin. If you manage your FabFilter plugins through FabFilter's included installer or central management tools, use those to check for and install updates. Make sure your DAW itself is also running natively on Apple Silicon — if your host DAW is still Intel-only under Rosetta, even a native plugin will be constrained by the host's architecture. FabFilter has been shipping native Apple Silicon builds of their plugins since 2021, so updating through the standard channels will get you a native version.
