AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Universal Binary version of FabFilter Pro-Q 3 exists and has been confirmed running on Apple Silicon Macs. To upgrade from the Intel build to the native version, visit the FabFilter website and download the latest Universal installer for Pro-Q 3. The FabFilter installer automatically detects your Mac's architecture and delivers the appropriate native build. Alternatively, if you obtained Pro-Q 3 through a DAW's plugin manager or a subscription service (such as a plugin rental or bundle), check that service's plugin update mechanism — many DAWs and plugin platforms now automatically download and install native builds when you launch them on an Apple Silicon Mac. After installing the native build, your DAW may need to re-scan your plugin folder to recognise the updated architecture; consult your DAW's documentation if Pro-Q 3 does not immediately appear in your plugin list after installation.
