LXConsole works with M1 hardware using Rosetta2 emulation.

Currently LXConsole is not a universal binary for both Intel and Apple Silicon because it links to D2XX and uDMX/libusb frameworks for DMX output. Both of these are Intel only. In the future these legacy outputs will be removed and LXConsole will be a universal app and will have native Apple Silicon support.

No issues have been reported. But, never know with Apple (and new processors)...

There's always a chance that something will come up. But, that's always true, regardless of new hardware or changes Apple makes. Particular use cases sometimes dig up things that no one has run across for years... It's rare, but it is the nature of software that it can happen.
