Haha, when I went back and read the fine print they do mention native support is still being worked on, but I like your approach.
For 11.1 the ‘Universal’ installer has both versions included, and there’s an Intel-only installer. Universal build lets you choose Intel version by selecting ‘Open in Rosetta’ in app info.
At last, M1-native Arturia plugins and M1-native Ableton Live has made project load times with the V Collection almost acceptable.
I’ve found that a few Max devices don’t yet work, but otherwise it’s just great.
The lack of AUv3 support is starting to be really annoying though. Now that we can buy and run iPad Audio Unit apps on M1 Macs, I would LOVE to be able to use them in Ableton.
Thats a great idea, thank you.
Yeah Drambo comes to mind.
studiomux?
if you plug ur ipad in via lighting/usb it turns up as an audio interface and u can route audio from ableton to the ipad and back again. latency isnt great but it works. you need to enable the ipad as an audio device in audio/midi setup, i think i have mine as an aggregate device.
That’s iDAM mode, but it only works in one direction for audio: iPad > Mac. Midi goes both ways though.
I prefer plugins as they’re contained inside the project.
im pretty sure i have used eventide space on ios as a send from ableton and it worked ok for me. been a while since i tried it so may have changed or may be misremembering.
Exactly… don’t open a project for a week and you probably forgot that there was an iPad in the chain. That’s why I started to only work ITB right now … to many projects already on my HW machines where I forgot which devices were involved and therefore will never finish those projects. I’d need to change / overthink my whole workflow and start making notes etc. – lots of discipline involved!
11.1 Installed. Opened in Rosetta first and then Native as I’d heard that recommended for Apple’s AU wrapper to function properly in Logic so thought I’d try it here as well.
So far it’s flawless. CPU meter seems much more stable and is sitting a good 20-30% lower in the more hectic parts of large projects. All plugins running are operating as normal in AU format (Soundtoys, PA, Arturia, Sountoys, FabFilter, Valhalla, U-He). I’ve heard VST format is less stable.
I am also experiencing fewer spikes/dropouts while using other programs simultaneously. I like to listen to my tracks while doing other tasks and audio dropouts used to be frequent when having a few Chrome tabs open and scrolling around etc but not anymore.
All in all very happy with this.
I’ve been on the 11.1 beta for a month or so and have been really happy with the performance on my M1Max when running native. Can’t wait until Plugin Alliance, Sonible, Soundtoys, and SSL get updated to M1 native too. From my experience the native plugins just run so much better that I’ve been avoiding anything through rosetta.
Funny enough, I just got Bitwig Studio installed this morning because it’s already M1 Native and am starting to dig around in there for the first time. I was offered a NFR so why not?
Overbridge’s Total Recall helps, up to a point.
If you hold down the Option/Alt key while resizing one column, it resizes them all, and makes all the devices appear with their names.
Wrote Goodhertz and Plugin Alliance about their lack of native M1 support this morning, basically telling them I read their FAQ but it’s annoying to me so I wanted to annoy them too 
Hi guys.
I got a question about comping in Ableton 11.
I got it all working and really happy with this feat for different needs.
I use comping when multi tracking my live jams and was wondering if theres a feature to lay out all the lanes in serial as in lane 1, 2 and so on for all tracks recorded.
I know how its done manually, just hoping that was a shortcut command that could do this.
I just installed 11.1 and its crashing on launch (lol).
Have put in a support ticket, not sure what it is, I do use a custom template set and it crashes after saying thats what its loading.
Does anyone know where on the filesystem that gets stored? (on macos) I could try move it out of the way.
I’d like to know where the user library is just to back up all my presents and templates anyway
Mine was doing the same. Support referred me to this article that sorted it.
Thank you that got it going again!
