AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon build of Battery 4 exists and has been confirmed running on Intel Mac users' systems. To get the native version, use Native Instruments' Native Access application (their plugin manager and licensing tool) to check for and install the latest version of Battery 4. Launch Native Access, find Battery 4 in your library, and click Update if an update is available. The update will automatically deliver the native Universal Binary build, which includes native ARM64 support for macOS 13 and later alongside Pro Tools. Pro Tools itself must be on version 2023.6 or newer to host AAX plugins (the native build requirement), so ensure your Pro Tools installation is current before updating Battery 4. If you do not yet have Native Access installed, download it from the Native Instruments website — it is their standard distribution channel for all Komplete plugin updates and is free to use.
