Awesome! Thank you to all involved.

I have to give it to Apple, I was completely wrong with my prediction.
Not only is the performance of x86-64 Intel apps running in Rosetta 2 on M1-based Macs extremely decent, the native performance of the M1 is also incredibly impressive. I'm glad I was wrong too, and I hope Microsoft is paying attention, Apple just showed the tech world how to transition from Intel x86-64 to ARM the right way. The most exciting part to see from my point of view is the Rosetta 2 compatibility layer allowing x86-64 apps to run on Apple Silicon (ARM) which ironically is still pretty abysmal with Windows 10 on ARM - they only have 32-bit apps working with support for 64-bit apps literally just landing in the Insider Preview channel a day or so ago. They've got a lot of catching up to do, in my opinion.
I gotta hand it to JRiver too, looks like they supported arm64 (with MC for Linux) at the right time, allowing the transition to Apple Silicon to (hopefully) be smooth and relatively easy.

Is there any way to play online content or measurement (and other) apps through JRiver DSP on a Mac in similar fashion to using to the WDM driver in the Windows version?

Hmmm....any chance this is on the "to do" list? Lots of streaming services being watched now.

I'm not JRiver (nor do I work for them) but if I recall correctly, it's not an easy thing to do on macOS. With Linux it's probably possible with ALSA, but if it were to ever happen and I had to guess, it may not happen anytime soon.
