Izotope has still not updated the large majority of its plug-ins for Ventura which was released last October. They haven't even updated their compatibility page since March 22. I decided I was no longer going to wait on buying a new Mac and went ahead and updated to Ventura. This was in the face of a zillion warnings not to do so if you are running a suite of Izotope products. I was so frustrated I had decided I could make do with my large Waves Audio library in the interim even though some pundits said that the non updated Izotope plug-ins could prevent Logic Pro from even loading. Pretty dire.
But ... I loaded Ventura and EVERY Izotope product I own, even legacy plug-ins dating back years all work with zero hitches. What the heck? I've waited six months for nothing? Whatever.
A HUGE disclaimer: I am not recommending that anybody else try this because I have zero ideas of why it all works on my older Mac. But I'm glad it worked out for me.

I have a iMac Retina with Ventura 13.2 OS and Logic 10.7.7 installed with Nectar, Neutron3, Rx5 and Ozone 9 installed. I use Studio One Pro 6 mostly because of cross platform with my PC. I did not see any crashes when I loaded the effects into Logic though. I tried out Neutron 3 just to see if it did anything unusual but seems to work.

No problems here on either Mac except with some older reverbs that will never be updated. Easy enough not to use them.

I have a 2020 M1 Macbook Air running Ventura, and so far no major problems here. I do video editing on that one and use the Izotope RX plugins in Davinci without any major issues, plus a few other plugins here and there. I've also used a number of DAWs on Ventura for testing the Band-in-a-Box plugin, including the latest versions of Logic, Garage Band, Reaper, Pro Tools, Waveform, Cubase, Nuendo, and Reason, again with no problems - although it should be said that I'm not recording or mixing using those DAWs.
