A VU meter plugin by which manufacturer? There’s lots of third party vu meter plugins available, but if you didn’t buy it…..you don’t have it.

If it isn’t coded for an M1 chip, my understanding is that Rosetta will take over. Should be fine, just make sure you install the AAX version.

By the way, the Blue Cat meter is fantastic, but not free.
