AI Recommendation
1 suggestionFabFilter Volcano 2 now ships as a Universal Binary (native Apple Silicon and Intel) via the FabFilter installer. Since a native build has been confirmed in use, you can upgrade by visiting the FabFilter website, downloading the current FabFilter installer, and running it. The installer will detect your Mac architecture and install the native build automatically. If you prefer, you can also visit the FabFilter website directly and download Volcano 2 from their plugin library — the default download will serve the native version on Apple Silicon Macs. After installation, relaunch Pro Tools and your existing Volcano 2 instances and presets will carry over without any manual migration. Expect noticeably better performance, lower CPU usage, and improved battery life compared to running the Intel build under Rosetta.
