from KVR-vst.com: Audio Units is an alternative, OS X only, plugin format to VST and is the only plugin format supported by Emagic's Logic on OS X. The Crystal soft synthesizer, previously only available for VST, is now available as one of the first plugins in this new format. Crystal, one of the most popular software synthesizers due to its inspiring sonic capabilities, along with the added bonus that it's free, may now be used by Logic 6 (version 6 of Logic is required), and other AU host users on OS X.

Why would Logic 6 be required to run it? AFAIK there are no major changes between 5.5 and 6.0's AU implementation, are there? Cheers, -Josh Emmons

Here's the info I got from Glenn: "With Logic 5 you can use the presets, but you can't edit patches (the GUI controls won't work). EMagic will be supplying a free 5.5.x update to fix this in the near future. by Logic 6 (version 6 of Logic is required), and other AU host users on OS X." ===="You blow in this end of the trombone, and sound comes out the other end and disrupts the cosmos."
