WAVES aaaghhhghghhghghghhhhhh

[(o)(o)]

OK so finally seduced to pick up a Waves plugin... OMFG wat are they doing with the security on their software?! I should have paid more attention to the warnings.

Installed thing, "full license" it says.. FX appears in Studio One like it should... drag on a track .. NOOOOTHING ! ! No GUI .. no warning box.. FUCK ALL !!! Exact smae thing in Garageband

Support seems to be something you have to pay extra for or something? Can't find the answers online. Sent an email.. "would you mind me using this software I paid for please" (not exact wording ) but enthusiam is muted already... might just request a refund. There are 'allegedly' none of these problems with pirated versions FFS

Don't suppose anyone here havinbg such issues and has resolved them I'm on High Sierra 10.13.6 on a Mac Pro 6,1 ??

I have one Waves plugin and Logic. I think I despise all music software. It's all a convoluted hellhole. Either too many stupid controls or too much menu diving. I just want CoolEdit Pro back to how it was. But anyway, I just got my stuff on the new mac and it's working for me. It's ugly, but it's working. Stick to the, I mean use the pirate one if you bought it already. Sometimes it's worth it just to get away from the hassle of online dongling

Well I've probably related before my friend a pro user who has a Steinberg manager appointed to him. The dongle issues were so annoying his fully paid up copy of Cubase sat in a box, he was running a cracked version and it was more stable

But yeah.. this machine is 100% legit, and that's the joke. Waves software is readily available cracked you can pick up the Platinum suite any day of the week - but I chose to buy this thing and I didn't nothing from it. Biggest anticlimax ever.. buy, download and install a piece of software and NOTHING happens. It's right there in the list of plugins, launch it and...... NADA.. no GUI nothing... what a tease.

They don't offer any stellar software IMO.. their tech support didn't bother to write back and what's this BS about having to pay for upgrades.. they are not worth the hassle

Just requested my money back
