Native Instruments is now, well, native! (Kontakt only)
I saw a reference in another post but for those that weren’t aware, the newest Kontakt player now runs natively on ARM Macs. If you’re like me with a new M1 machine and don’t want to use Rosetta, this is great news. Once (if?) BFD gets their new version, I’ll be Intel free . . .

Oh man you need to change the title. I was in the beta, yeah it's great Kontakt is ported, it's the only thing out of more than a dozen instruments and FX they've ported yet though.
Yes it's great, and that they're beating some other companies is great.

Good call . . . and edited for clarity. Still, happy it happened and impressive they beat quite a few other companies.Michael Canavan wrote: ↑Wed Feb 16, 2022 3:33 pm Oh man you need to change the title.

I think it's only "impressive" relative to their record in such matters.
