I ended up updating from Komplete 13 to 14 yesterday, so I got Kontakt 7, which is AAX Native. But beyond that I need Reaktor, *Battery, Absynth and Massive (Massive is AAX Native but it doesn't work properly).

*Edit: I just realized that Battery 4 is now opening in PT Native so cross that off the list.

That's the thing, it's tough just abandoning these plugins because they're excellent. I don't have anything that quite replaces MD4.

Sadly there are a few show-stoppers for me. Altiverb, Plugin Alliance, Newfangled, and I am sure there would be more if I kept going.

“All formats are Apple Silicon Compatible”

I can confirm this. Though this is news from late february, but I forgot to post.

Reading between the lines PT native support is expected later this month and they are ready for it (with the plugins listed for other formats).

I thought they had no plans to update Absynth. Am I dreaming that?

Yeah, Absynth development is dead.

Maybe I'm "entering the twilight zone" or it's a typo (hope so to both) but at the top of that Plugin Alliance post/link it states March 17th 2022 -so their end of March statement would be a year old. Correct me if I'm wrong but this Friday is March 17th 2023. So this post by PA is a year old. Hope we get an update soon.

Well that's not good to hear. Maybe I knew that but had forgotten. Bummer. As mentioned above, it *was* a unique plugin.
