Hans Zimmer Strings is notorious for its high voice counts, often triggering thousands of simultaneous samples during complex legato passages.

The updated plugin architecture now leverages the unified memory and high bandwidth of Apple’s ARM-based chips, allowing for significantly lower buffer sizes and more stable playback.
