Apple M1 support

Hi all, I applied via the form they had up for a while but never got a response. I’ve been waiting for 2 years (!) to get BFD running again. I have completely moved over to other drum plugins but still have old files I want to open every now and then. When and where can I get this beta update? Can someone send me theirs?

EDIT: @BFD_Drew can you send me a link via this forum?

Hi, I bought BFD3 during Black Friday 2022 but haven’t really been able to use it yet since the M1 Rosetta version is very slow.

I signed up for the beta several months ago but haven’t heard anything back. @BFD_Drew would it be possible to send me a download link for the beta?

Thank you and kind regards.

PM’s responded to. Anyone who wants the M1 build, let me know via PM and I’ll sort you out.

Hello, thank you kindly.

Thank you Drew for sending me the M1 build. It works great and I love having BFD 3 back and running.

Hi, it looks like the beta is going well for most.
Is there an official release date in sight by now?

I don’t really feel like running a beta on my main computer. But I really want to get back to using BFD properly.

Hey Drew,

I’ve PM’d you, could I please get a copy of the M1 Build?

Is anyone able to use BFD3 with Pro Tools Silicon, NOT Rosetta?

And me as well please. BFD user since it was introduced. Sure would like to use on my M1.

Hi Drew, would you send me Bfd 3 M1 version to me please?

I would also love the beta please. I have filled out the beta tester form at least 3 times with nothing as a result.

M3 is about to be born, bfd3 can’t support apple sillicon yet, it’s really helpless,,

See my response to your other post

The stable version is out, the wait is over !

Maybe I’m doing something wrong but the newest version isn’t stable on my M1 with Logic or Standalone. In Logic BFD3 crashes often and the Standalone won’t open at all. I’m just hoping the next update smooths out these problems….

Been waiting cautiously before installing the new update. Will still likely wait until I do a completely new OS=install, next month. But I thought I’d come to check if all the dust has settles and we have a working M1 version. Definitely a bit saddened to see your experience, Grant. More so because your post seems to have gone unaddressed.

Can anyone confirm what to expect i.e known issues vs stability?

Thanks

Hey @GrantBordan

Please see this post. If you think your issue is something different to the issues mentioned there, please don’t hesitate to raise a bug report and contact support.

Thanks,

Thanks! I had two audio interfaces that I couldn’t run at the same time in stand alone.
