Universal version latest seen at v1.4.6+3 · Reported by 2 Macs in the community.
FM8 is a powerful FM synthesizer plugin from Native Instruments, used by electronic music producers, sound designers, and composers to create complex, evolving timbres through frequency modulation synthesis. It combines classic FM synthesis with modern features including a unique sound morphing system, arpeggiator, and extensive effects section that goes beyond traditional FM capabilities. FM8 is available as an AU, VST, VST3 and AAX plugin, making it compatible with most digital audio workstations. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community, demonstrating that users can now run this synthesizer natively on M-series machines.
