Reason 12, Ventura, M2 Macbook & Pancake2

[boesOne]

Today i got my new MacBook Pro M2 and installed all the go to plugins.
Pancake 2 by cableguys seems to install fine, but i can't find it in Reason. It doesn't show up in the Manage Plugins window.
It is installed because i can find it in the library\audio\Plugins\VST folder. But Reason doesn't see it.

What can be the matter here? Is it because it is too old? Must it be native ARM?

When Reason is running in native mode (=default for current R12) it cannot load non-native plugins. You could try to start Reason in Rosetta mode and see if it shows up then.

Thanks! This works.

Of course, you actually want to run Reason in Native mode and not switch to Rosetta. The best thing to do is to contact the developers and ask them to release a native version. Some developers respond quickly, others take longer. After switching to M1, I can only use most of Sampleson's plug-ins in Rosetta, which I'm not comfortable with. I'm waiting for new versions to come out.
