I’m an INB producer (Used to use hardware), so I use the best tools on the market like, Gullfoss, Soothe2, Pro-Q 3, Acustica Gold/Opal/Ivory, Unisum compressor and saturator. So I bought a Mac Studio Ultra because I wanted to start working at 96khz, only to find out Ableton haven’t coded multi-threading for Apple Silicon in Live 11.2. IR based like Acustica plugins sound way better at their native sample rate. When I was running 48khz sessions, they didn’t sound great. At 96khz, heavy plugins like Acustica Audio’s Opal, El Rey and Gold can each use huge amount of CPU. Now Serum runs worse on some M1 machines when using a lot of oversampling or 96khz rates, because of the single clock speed of M1 being a lot slower than 4.7ghz on my MBP. He said he won’t because it’s really difficult, even for Intel. ![]() I chatted with Steve Duda and asked him to add multi-threading to Serum, like Diva has. I’ve tried BlueCat and even Ksmr’s Chain, no dice. If a plugin doesn’t multi-thread, then (Currently), Ableton 11.2.6 will not multi-thread Rosetta or native plugins on the master. I wondered, if I put Gig Performer on the master, and run my mastering chain of plugins inside it, will GP multi-thread itself? This is the issue. But I only use Logic for occasional projects. Logic is way better than Ableton at maximising performance of the cores. They won’t multi-thread like on my Intel machine. I have a M1 Ultra, but both Logic and Ableton will only use one core for the master channel. There is a long running issue with Acustica Audio and Izotope plugins in 96khz sessions on Apple Silicon. ![]() ![]() TL:DR: is GP 4.5 good at multithreading within Ableton, using Apple Sillicon, with a heavy load of plugins inside (As a wrapper plug)?
