AI Recommendation
1 suggestionOzone 8 Elements is an audio plugin that is not updated separately — it is managed through the iZotope Product Portal, iZotope's central plugin and software updater. To check for and install any available native Apple Silicon build, open the iZotope Product Portal on your Mac, locate Ozone 8 Elements in your installed plugins list, and follow the portal's update prompts. iZotope began shipping native Apple Silicon builds for its major plugins including Ozone in recent years, but if your copy is still Intel-only under Rosetta, updating through the Product Portal will pull the current native build to your system. The portal handles all version management automatically — you do not need to manually download or reinstall from anywhere else. Keep in mind that Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), so updating to a native build ensures Ozone 8 Elements continues to work on future macOS releases.
