    Can somebody explain how to install this on Windows 10?

    I have installed Waves Central and ran it. on the welcome screen I selected "Continue offline"

    on the next screen I selected "Browse" > Waves > Data > v11 > Win > Plugins and selected the X-Noise.bundle folder but then there is no option to precede?

    I have also tried "Browse" > Waves > Data > v11 > Win > and selected the Shells folder but again there is no option to precede?

    No matter what I do there is no option to proceed or install?

    once you install waves central dont run it... goto the run waves.ceo ( i thnk its called). there choose what. you want. and then select Install.. ( no need to search for anything). once install is finished run the patch ( its really fast) and you are done. its really quite easy your on PC

    maybe better instructions here...

    you have 2 folder once you. unarchive it. all

    >Patch folder
    >waves Folder

    first open waves folder inside you should have

    >data folder
    >error codes.bat ( this is only if you have an error code when installing)
    >install_waves_Centeral.exe
    >Install.cen. <--- run this as admin after installing waves central.exe
    > the 3 other file you need not worry about normally

    so run Install.cen. it shouls be set to. offline already just pick what you want and. then click install when thats finished run
    > Waves Complete 11.0 patch.exe

    thats should be it.

    I hope this helps

    Thanks evolasme and homer_simpson

    Both worked and I was able to chose the plugs I wanted, allow the install and then I applied the crack but...

    I am on Win 10 64 bit with legit Cubase 10.5 LE Ai and none of the plugs are showing up in Cubase or in my 2nd DAW (Studio One 4.6)

    I watched during the install for the option to choose 32 or 64 bit, VST 2 or 3 but did not see those options so assumed the installer would see the OS and install in the correct places.

    So I checked where Waves had been installed and it had done this:

    Program Files > Vstplugins:
    Waveshell1-VST 11.0_x64.dll
    Waveshell6-VST 11.0_x64.dll
    (nothing in the VST 3 folder)

    Program Files (x86) > Waves
    3 folders - Data, Plug-ins V11 and WaveShells V11
    inside each folder is a whole bunch of files and in

    Program Files (x86) > Waves > Plug-ins V11
    it had put my selected plugins including the Win64 versions ?

    Digging a bit deeper - cubase Plug-in manager has listed all of the waves plugs as (Not a valid plug-in) ???

    Cubase 10.5 is 64bit only. the "not valid plug ins" are the 32bit versions of plugs... you dont lose anything as all plug in. have 64 bit version

    Thats what I thought but during the install dialog I am not given the option to select 64 bit versions and if they are installed automaticly they are not showing up in my DAWS, plus it is installing the 32 bit versions clogging up my HD...

    Yes they all work fine, any WiN DAW.
    cubase is 64bit only right, if you installed the x64 plugins in your vst folder they should open fine (activation is another issue)

    You have the option of Cubase scanning the waveshells or you can split them up using the Shell2VST option, but tbh one shouldnt work when the other doesnt

    have to admit Waves Central + R2R emu, works flawless and fast, plus u need it anyway if u install stuff with samples.

    waveshell was a bit of a hazzle.

    Didnt have to run it via admin on win 8.1 x64 Pro.
