Hi @Leones and welcome to the community. No problem there. I use Scaler 2 and all of our products in Intel Macs daily. ---

Which OS are you using? I “upgraded” my Intel iMac to Sonoma recently, so that I could run Live 12. Now none of my music apps run reliably. Live 12, VCV, Reaper, Numerology and Wotja all borked. Curiously just Scaler in Live 12 is usable. ---

If you are a complete beginner [this bundle](https://www.pluginboutique.com/product/81-Bundles/39-Effects-Bundles/6447-Scaler-2-Bundle) includes the desktop VST/AU/AAX version of Scaler 2 and the Official Scaler 2 course. Otherwise [this](https://www.pluginboutique.com/products/6439-Scaler-2?nosto=frontpage-nosto-3) gets you just the software which is all you need (without the course). ---

Yes works great with Sonoma. Do you have any other plugins working? What DAW are you using? Try restarting your Mac firstly and then provide some information on which DAW you are using. Some DAW’s need you to activate your VST/AU folders like Ableton Live in which case googling how to run VST/AUs can help too. ---

OK, do you know how to load effects and instruments in Logic Pro? (see attached) Also check in Logic Pro/Settings/Plugin Manager. ![Screenshot 2024-08-06 at 13.48.15 copy](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex012/uploads/scalermusic/original/2X/2/23b55ccec545fcc5ef273d9ca5530ee025c7684b.jpeg)
