Is there any possibility to run audio exe plugins on Logic Mac

[Bassgore]

Hey guys.

I recently change from PC to Mac in the recording studio and the biggest regret is that I've got loads of great plugins for windows/Cubase.
To upgrade these for Mac would cost a fortune.
Is there any way of converting, change script, fool the Mac
well I don't know and I've searched almost everywhere.
So basically I just need an answer if there is or will be a glimt of light somewhere somehow ...lol

Best regards

No, you can't run .exe (Windows executable) files on native Mac OS X.

Yea...I kinda knew that...

I just thought that, considering, all new script experts and adapter software that there was someway around my problem...

run windows in bootcamp?

 

[Bassgore]

I haven't tried that but....If I install the plugins in BootcampWindows...is it transferrable to Logic when u use mac...doesn't those OS work seperatly?

they won't work with logic for mac; you'd need logic for the PC.

If you legitimately own your plugins then there will more than likely be a free AU version for download on the manufacturers site that will work on the same license code.
Not many developers make you pay again for a VST/AU version.

If there is no AU version but is a Mac VST version then you could look into a VST -> AU wrapper such as this:
