    Heya

    Quick question...I’m running Logic Pro and only use individual Waves plugins (no SoundGrid, SuperRack, StudioRack, or LV1). I noticed there’s a “WPAPI” component installed on my system, and I’m wondering if it’s actually needed for Logic, or if it’s safe to delete.

    Since Logic only loads the AU versions of the plugins, I’ve heard WPAPI might only be required for SoundGrid setups. Can anyone confirm? I just want to make sure I don’t break anything by removing it.

    For context, I don’t have SoundGrid, StudioRack, or StudioVerse installed, just standalone Waves plugins.

    Thanks in advance!
