I’ve been waiting… like most others using M1… for over a year to finally take advantage of the Mac ARM processing power. My DAW is Cubase and it has finally been released (v12) with native ARM support… however, it no longer supports VST 2.x plugins. So everything I have that uses Toontrack won’t work… because Toontrack plugins are not available in VST 3 format. I just can’t win… what a waste of time this upgrade has been for me. Is there any indication that Toontrack will release VST 3 versions of there software?

Thanks for responding. Please let me know what you discover. Most of the other settings are fine. Its just these presets (which happen to be my favorites and the purpose I got this pack) that are causing the pops and cracks issue… and I cant imagine it requiring a more powerful computer than what I have. Perhaps there is a need to investigate the plugins efficiency when using upwards of 9 FX… with only 2 or so instances on my project bogging down my I7 32GB iMac… I can only imagine what it must be doing to someone using a minimum requirement setup. Thanks again John.
