AI Recommendation
1 suggestionSupercharger ships as a native Apple Silicon VST3 plugin — a sighting on a real Mac in our community confirms this. To get the native build, launch Native Access (Native Instruments' plugin and software manager) and let it check for updates; it will automatically download and install the current version of Supercharger, replacing any older Intel-only copy. Native Access handles all plugin updates centrally, so once you trigger the update there, Supercharger will be ready to use in native mode in your DAW. No separate download or opt-in is needed — the update channel is Native Access itself.
