To receive the native version, use Plugin Alliance's Installation Manager — the vendor's official tool for selecting, downloading and installing all Plugin Alliance products. Open the Installation Manager, ensure you have the latest version available, and it will automatically serve the native ARM64 build for VST3, AAX and other formats on Apple Silicon Macs. Simply updating the plugin through the Installation Manager will replace your Intel-only version with the native build at no additional cost if you hold an active CORE or PRO subscription. No manual migration or separate download is needed.
