If you updated all using the generic update notification in the upper left of Waves Central, which may have installed everything as V10, you can use the Uninstall function within Waves Central itself and re-download/reinstall. It will install the correct version for whatever is associated with your account. A product in that section which is V9 won't be installed - or even have an option to install - as V10. Under 'Install Products' it will list your products based on license version. The main thing to do if you're using both V9 and V10 generally seems to be avoid using 'Easy Install & Activate' option and rather use the 'Install Products' option. My experience wasn't necessarily this complicated. Now my version 9 and 10 plugs are all running fine. Don't update your existing version 9 plugins when it asks, and don't let it delete them.

Now install the new version 10, and install your version 10 plugins.

Make sure everything is working, and then delete the legacy version of Waves Central. I also had to run the AUreg utility in the Waves folder, to get my plugins to show up. Install ONLY your version 9 plugs from this, and download the licenses from the cloud for these. Then, install this offline installer for version 9: Delete this as well, and empty your trash. I'm on a mac, so in library - application support (root level, not the user library) there's a Waves folder with your license information. Then DELETE Waves Central and all traces you can find of anything Waves. First by sending all your licenses to the cloud inside Waves Central, and then uninstall all your plugins, also inside Waves Central. I got everything working now, but it's a pain the ass:įirst I was able to update quite a few of my plugins to version 10 on the waves website, but I still had a few much needed favourites in version 9.
