MFM2
MFM2 is an advanced audio delay plug-in from U-He, distributed as an Audio Unit (AU) component for macOS. It provides four independent delay lines with multimode filters, syncable LFOs, multi-stage envelope generators, and effects including granular processing, diffusion, compression and soft clipping. MFM2 is used by music producers, sound designers and mixing engineers to create everything from subtle textured delays to complex reverb, pitch-shifted effects and rhythmic deconstructions. The plug-in integrates directly into AU-compatible hosts on macOS such as Logic Pro, MainStage, Maschine and other professional audio applications.

1 suggestionMFM2 includes native Apple Silicon support as of version 2.5.1 (released October 2024) for the AAX format, and U-He supports AU builds for Apple Silicon in recent versions. Since MFM2 is an Audio Unit component (not a standalone app), it cannot be downloaded or updated independently from the Mac App Store or a generic vendor page. To obtain the native build, visit U-He's website directly (u-he.com), download the MFM2 installer for macOS, and run it — the installer will automatically detect your architecture and install the native Apple Silicon AU component into your host application's plug-in folder. If you use Pro Tools, ensure Pro Tools itself is on version 2023.6 or later (the first natively compiled Pro Tools) for AAX plug-in compatibility. After installing, your DAW will automatically recognize the updated native MFM2 component on next launch — no DAW restart or manual re-scanning is usually required, though some hosts (Logic Pro, Ableton Live) benefit from a manual scan or restart to pick up the new plug-in. Updating now ensures MFM2 will continue working when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028).
