    Windows:

    Windows 7 to 10 and higher, 64bit host, plugin provided formats are VST2 and VST3.

    Mac OS:

    Mac OS (10.10) to Catalina/ Big Sur or higher, 64bit host, plugin provided format is AU (AudioUnits).

    About AudioUnits format:

    AU is Apple s proprietary audio technology, part of the Core Audio provided by Mac OSX. It is part of the operating system so it provides low latency and system-level support for the interface. Most DAWs developed for Mac OSX support the Audio Units interface due to its stability and system-level solutions (which also means faster processing). Apple Logic only utilizes Audio Unit format plugins, but other DAWs such as Ableton can also use these.

    One or two DAWs like for example Cubase do not support Audiounits directly yet but you can still easily load an AU plugin with the help of a VST host plugin, some popular solutions are DDMF Metaplugin or BlueCat's Patchworks, a popular free one that recently got open sourced is KUSHVIEW ELEMENT. You will find info and a direct link to latest free binaries at the support/OSX Support part of my website.

    Protools:

    Avid Protools only supports its proprieratary format AAX at the moment but you can still easily load an AU or VST plugin with the help of a VST/AU host plugin, some popular solutions are DDMF Metaplugin or BlueCat's Patchworks, others might be available that I am not aware of yet.

    Other info:

    32bit is not supported ATM
    Mac M1 should handle it fine even if it is not natively compiled for ARM.
