In this article, we provide information on iZotope product compatibility with macOS systems.
This article includes information about Rosetta and native compatibility of iZotope and Exponential Audio products on Apple silicon (M-series) Macs.
Apple Rosetta 2 enables software built for an Intel Mac to run on an Apple silicon Mac. All of our currently shipping products and certain older products are compatible with Rosetta 2. See the table below for format and minimum supported version information related to Rosetta support.
Apple silicon native support enables software to run natively on Apple silicon arm64 processors without the need for Rosetta 2 translation. All of our currently shipping products support running natively on Apple silicon in applicable formats, some older products will not be updated to include native support and only support Rosetta. See the table below for minimum supported versions per format and information on products that will not be updated with native support.
Product Portal requires Rosetta 2 to run on Apple silicon Macs.

Currently, iZotope software and hardware products are not supported on macOS 14 Sonoma. We cannot recommend to update to macOS 14 at this point.
We are conducting systematic tests with macOS 14 in order to offer full compatibility of our software and hardware products as soon as possible.
Please note that even though the beta version of Sonoma has been available for some time, we ultimately need to ensure our product compatibility with the release version.
