Apple Silicon (U2B) Plugins

Universal 2 binary format applications and plug-ins run on both Intel x86-64-based and ARM64-based Macintosh computers ("Apple Silicon" / "Apple M1").

Native apps run more efficiently than translated apps because the compiler is able to optimize your code for the target architecture. An app that supports only the x86_64 architecture must run under Rosetta translation on Apple silicon. A universal binary runs natively on both Apple silicon and Intel-based Mac computers, because it contains executable code for both architectures.
