In the My audio computer is online section there are specific instructions for the Waves download and installation process. The first step provides links to download the Waves License Center installer. Download and run the appropriate "WOLI" installer program.
NOTE: OSX YOSEMITE users must download the Mavericks offline installer above as well as the YOSEMITE FIX Waves provides at the following link:
- The Waves InstallShield Wizard will allow you to install ANY Waves product. You'll only want to install the plugins you've registered. When prompted, scroll down to the Single Plug-Ins section and check the boxes for only the plugins you received in your M-Audio account.
-
On Windows, click Next and confirm that you've selected the proper Single Plug-Ins. Click Next once more and click Install to begin.
On Mac, simply click Install after you've selected the proper plugins to begin.
- Allow the installation to complete. On Windows, click Finish when prompted. On a Mac, click Quit when prompted.
-
Now open the Waves License Center. This is found in the following directory:
Windows: C:\Program Files (x86) > Waves > Applications > WLC
Mac OSX: HD > Applications > Waves > Applications > WLC - Upon opening the Waves License Center, enter your Waves login information (the same as you did on Step 6).
- You will now see all of your registered Waves licenses in the Select Licenses column, and available places to hold these licenses in the Select Destination column. You can deposit your licenses onto your computer or a USB thumb drive. Check the boxes for AudioTrack, Kramer FX, and TrueVerb in the Select Licenses column. Select where you'd like to deposit them in the Select Destination column. Then choose Send Licenses.
- The Waves License Center will synchronize these licenses shortly, then confirm that they were sent successfully. Once your Waves product disappear from your Select Licenses column, the process is complete!
