Decapitator is an AAX audio plugin for Avid Pro Tools developed by Soundtoys, used by audio engineers and music producers for creative saturation, distortion and tone-shaping on individual tracks or busses during mixing and mastering. The plugin models various analog saturation circuits and is a core tool in professional mixing workflows. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionDecapitator has shipped a native Apple Silicon (Universal) build in recent versions, and a native sighting has been confirmed in our community. To upgrade from the Intel version to the native build, visit the Soundtoys download page and re-download the Decapitator installer — on an Apple Silicon Mac it will automatically serve the Universal build. Run the installer to replace your current version. Alternatively, if you have access to Soundtoys Central (the vendor's installer and license management tool), you can use that to update and manage all your Soundtoys plugins at once. After installation, Pro Tools will recognize the native version the next time you launch the host application. Note that Pro Tools itself must be version 2023.6 or newer to host native AAX plugins; if you are on an older Pro Tools release, update that first via the Avid Application Manager.
