Plugin Alliance M1 Installers are Available now!

On the Windows front, True Peak Limiter got a resizable update (which I think was in beta version then dropped previously), but sadly I spot checked a bunch of other plugins that actually need a resiable update and didn't see any.  

 

So I'm curious about the under the hood improvement they mention but don't detail across a large portion of the range.

Softube and PA ... yay!

The PA updates unlocked 9 amp sims that I have.

Still waiting for (in my world of guitar amp sims):

  • IK: AmpliTube, MixBox, TRackS
  • Nembrini: Analog Rack in particular (all the freebies are already M1 native, though)
  • NI: Guitar Rig

Not a scientific test but I also opened gig performer and individually added some of the PA plugins to check "cpu" usage and doesn't seem like we are seeing any significant efficiency improvements in the update.  At least not by percentage ponints anyway that are measureable.

 

I checked about 15 out of the usual suspects in my 70 PA plugin collection.  

(Windows only related)

Omg, thanks so much! The King posts so much stuff that thread went down too fast I didn't notice it.

I guess I gotta download almost all their installers again now (I just tested the FET compressor, its size bug in Logic Pro has been fixed (they all had it)).
