    Hi everyone, I've been trying so many times to download and install several versions of Waves plugins with the different links proposed via Audioz, but each time I have problems.

    I run through Mac OS Big Sur..

    Sometimes, Wave central doesn't launch and I ve got message saying I have not the necessary permissions.

    Or I can access to waves central, trying to install plug in one by one, but none could be caused it's failed each time at about 85% of copy...

    Anyone could help me please?

    Best regards

    Intel/M1? desktop/laptop? hackintosh?

    since Waves 10 introduced, we've been having various problems with Waves as legit customers,

    in general, least troublesome way is to log into Waves Central (no matter what account), install chosen plugins (show all if hidden) as demos,
    with older versions, it's possible to download complete archive from Waves website (9, 10, 11 etc..), which also includes matching Waves Central version to install plugins offline way,
    then make sure they are recognized in your DAW, reboot, and only then proceed to licensing stage, with up-to-date Waves Central installed,

    tricky part is, default license way is tied to network adapter's mac/physical address, which is unique to every device, but if you have a MacBook with just WiFi, and disable WiFi, you have no device available to license Waves to (unlike wired ethernet, which even if disconnected retains its hardware address as valid license device target

    Yeah I'm on M2 Max (and running Logic via Rosetta) but I still get the error "Failed to load Audio Unit “xxxx”, please contact the manufacturer for an updated version or further assistance."

    Does anyone know how to solve this? :(
