[pweinrobe]

hey all
i do a lot of heavy duty mixing with all the plugins (and more) that OP is asking about. i just bought an M1 Max. i can report that although the CPU is amazing and efficient, the plugins do not all like to be in rosetta and i experienced a lot of crashing.

if you are a professional, i would strongly advise to NOT try this. i am returning the M1 Max and bought a used 2019 i9 16 inch.

i definitely do not recommend running professional, on the clock, sessions from an M1 or later until both pro tools AND the 3rd party plugins fully certify.

i had a lot of weird bugs, some of which were very very scary (uad plugins loading, seeing the UAD device, but passing only dry audio, for example)

hope that helps
