    I’ve had a couple of issues with big sur update but also had issues with Catalina . On Catalina my mackie controller and extender would freeze crashing logic . I took the plunge and updated to big sur . My controller works perfectly now . No hardware problems with synths or drum machine . I was surprised my focusrite Scarlett 18i20 performs better under big sur . The only software I’ve had issues with is native instruments. Reaktor 6 wouldn’t validate in logic x but I’ve managed to fix that . The only other issue I’ve got is reaktor 6 and maschine in standalone both crash with app unexpectedly quit . I’ve had no issue with battery 4 not working . Other than that everything else works fine on my Mac mini intel apart from older plugs by audio damage and beatskillz . Izotope , waves , plugin alliance , arturia , softube , fabfilter amongst many other plugins all working fine .

    Is there any benefit to install Bigsur on an Intel based mac?

    For me mate it performs better more stable than Catalina loads quicker. I’ve had not issues with plugins apart from older stuff and ni plugs but I’ve fixed that issue now . my macki controller is working solid again under Catalina it kept freezing in logic . And the only other reason I updated was because apple pushing users of logic to newer updates . Catalina is minimum requirements now and won’t belong untill they fully push us out and say only silicon macs are compatible just and opinion .

    BigSur aka BigBrotha has backdoors and is malware, all newer Macs only work with BigSUR and physically have a hardware you can't bypass now., so forget about M1s, they probably had these speeds all along but controlled our devices using most of it like they use the net to monitor people.

    Facts: Apple has implemented a new API to bypass little snitch and VPNS
    they basically have time machine back ups of your activities

    Im told that you can block-redirect the hosts but I have yet to figure this one out today

    Yes, but all CPUs/APUS have it since years (Intel, AMD, Apple. Qualcomm).

    The interesting part is about how much the OS adds to that.

    The newer the macOS version is the more inacessible the system files become which makes it harder to apply plugin patches. Sinc Mojave, macOS is now split into 2 APFS volume, one being pretty much inacessible to average users. Using terminal or Tools Hckintoshusers use on a gerneral basis, this is not an issue really, more like an "obstacle"

    As far as performance is concerned, Big Sur should not really be installed in systems with an CPU older than Intel Core Haswell CPUs. Which you can do on real Macs using OpenCore Legacy Patcher. If you need 32 Bit suppurt, stay on Mojave.

    If Kontakt will not work for you on Big Sur, just load a track and save the channel strip settings. Now you can load Kontakt by using this channel strip.
