What is status for smartSDR for MAC OS with the new Apple M1 processor? Or right now are we still only able to use MACs with intel processor?

    I'll let you know when I get mine in early December. I would expect it to work with little or no effort from Marcus.

    The Rosetta v2 on the new ARM processors is supposed to work on x86 apps and do the code translation

    I’ll be watching this thread intently. My new MacBook Pro with M1 chip will be delivered towards the end of December (2020).

    I am running SmartSDR for Mac on my MacMini with the M1 processor without any issues.

    It appears that that the current version (1.4.23) is still an Intel compiled app and not universal. Do we know when Marcus is planning on making it a universal binary app?
