AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThis is an audio plugin component, not a standalone application, so it cannot be updated separately. To get a native Apple Silicon build of Ozone 7 Maximizer, you need to update it through iZotope's product management portal. Open the iZotope Product Portal on your Mac (or download it if you do not already have it installed from izotope.com), log in with your iZotope account, and check for available updates to your Ozone 7 license. iZotope has shipped native Apple Silicon builds of its audio plugins for several years, so updating through the Product Portal will give you the native version. Once updated, the native Maximizer AU will be available in your DAW's plugin browser. If you are running Ozone 7 under Rosetta 2 today, switching to the native build will improve performance and reduce CPU and battery usage. This becomes critical before macOS 28 in September 2028, when Apple removes Rosetta 2 entirely and Intel-only plugins will no longer work.
