It is available as an Audio Unit, VST, VST3, and AAX plugin for macOS and Windows, and runs as a plugin within the UAD Connect host application or within compatible DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations).

AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThe native Apple Silicon build of UAD Neve Preamp exists and is confirmed working on M-series Macs. To update, use Universal Audio's official update channel, UAD Connect. Launch UAD Connect, navigate to the Library or Plugins section, and check for available updates — the app will automatically detect and download the native build when you upgrade. UAD plugins installed on your system are managed and updated through UAD Connect rather than separately, so keeping that host application current is what ensures all your UAD plugins (including Neve Preamp) stay on their native builds. If you have not yet updated UAD Connect itself to a recent native version, visit universalaudio.com to download the latest UAD Connect installer first, then check for plugin updates from within the application.
