How to install for M1 Mac

Installation help

Ahh that makes more sense now, I'm getting some new bugs but feel like I'm moving forward thank you! So I got the SuperCollider IDE but when I boot the server I get a number of additional errors. A lot of them around a SC3Plugins folder like:

*** ERROR: dlopen '/Users/benzaiten/Library/Application Support/SuperCollider/Extensions/SC3plugins/HOAUGens/HOADecBinaural1_supernova.scx' err 'dlopen(/Users/benzaiten/Library/Application Support/SuperCollider/Extensions/SC3plugins/HOAUGens/HOADecBinaural1_supernova.scx, 0x0002): tried: '/Users/benzaiten/Library/Application Support/SuperCollider/Extensions/SC3plugins/HOAUGens/HOADecBinaural1_supernova.scx' (mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'x86_64', need 'arm64')), '/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/OS/Users/benzaiten/Library/Application Support/SuperCollider/Extensions/SC3plugins/HOAUGens/HOADecBinaural1_supernova.scx' (no such file), '/Users/benzaiten/Library/Application Support/SuperCollider/Extensions/SC3plugins/HOAUGens/HOADecBinaural1_supernova.scx' (mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'x86_64', need 'arm64'))'
...

Now in my .tidal file the error is different now but probably better to get supercollider running before I start with these errors.

I have not seen any errors with SC3Plugins, so I am at a loss. I have some suggestions, but hopefully someone else more knowledgable on SC and SCPlugins will respond.

With in the error message it says "(mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'x86_64', need 'arm64'" This looks as if you have the wrong version of the files, but SC3plugins. It may be that the Tidal automated installer gives you the wrong files. You may want to reinstall the SC3plugins manually.

The other thing to do is search this forum for similar error messages: "dlopen" or SC3-plugin error.

Yup I did this, tried various things but couldn't get around the errors with my limited knowledge of the domain. I've tried now to run tidal and it seems to work though with some errors, like I notice some synths like superpiano or supersaw won't make any sound while supersquare and supermandolin do. At least I can play around for now with what's available. Thanks!
