    1. When testing 3d renders in Blender, i saw a 20% increase in speed when using the Apple Silicon version instead of the Intel version. Would it be better or worse for plugins ? I don’t know. I haven’t yet upgraded all my music software to Apple Silicon.

        1. 1. Buy a Mac mini M1
          2. Download Blender, latest version for both Intel and Apple Silicon
          3. Render file of your choice on the Mac mini M1 with both versions, sequentially.
          You will see that the Apple Silicon version is roughly 20% faster than the Intel version ran via Rosetta 2.

  1. For what it’s worth: I recently had an issue installing a Cherry Audio AU on my Mac (my system has been very quirky lately) and their support was above and beyond helping me resolve the issue. Solid people and their software is top notch too.
