AI Recommendation
1 suggestionCodeRedFree is an AAX plugin that runs inside Avid Pro Tools, not a standalone application. To use it natively on Apple Silicon, you need both Pro Tools itself to be on a native build (version 2023.6 or later) and the CodeRedFree plugin to have a native AAX build available. Contact Shatteredglassaudio to confirm whether they have released a native Apple Silicon build of CodeRedFree. If they have, download and install it using the vendor's installer or plugin manager. If not, the plugin will continue to run under Rosetta 2 as long as you are on an older Pro Tools version, but Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (late 2027), so any Intel-only version of the plugin will stop working on that release. Ensure Pro Tools is kept up to date through Avid's Application Manager, which is the official channel for Pro Tools and its plugin support.
