macOS 11.0.1 is officially supported with software version 12.0, not 12.7.

RAM: Grand Rhapsody’s & Bass Finger’s minimal RAM required is 16 GB (and not 8GB, as generally described for all plugins).

Specific information available on each instrument’s page.

Waves Instruments: Additional disk-space may be required for sample libraries.

Recommended screen resolution for Flow Motion, Bass Slapper and Bass Fingers: 1920x1080.

Screen Resolution: SSL E-Channel, SSL G-Channel, Element, Codex, Dorrough, Flow Motion, Bass Slapper and Bass Fingers require minimum screen resolution 1280x1024 / 1600x1024.

Waves plugins are officially supported on up to two screens in third-party DAWs and host applications.

We are aware of this issue, which can be resolved by reinstalling V9.92 plugins or contacting Tech Support.

For this reason, installing a newer version alongside V9 may cause temporary loss of access to V9 plugins on systems that support both versions.

To run V9 side by side with a newer version, please install version 9.92.

Software versions earlier than 9.92 cannot co-exist with software versions above V10.

To check if a plugin exists in an older version, scroll to the bottom of the older version's download page.

Current version licenses will activate older version software (V9 and above), if the product/s in question exists in this software version.

Workaround: Create a new Admin user account with English characters only, then install and run the plugins on the new user account.

Currently, having a Windows user account name that includes non-English characters may prompt a Waveshell error message while scanning V13 plugins in your DAW.

We are working to fix this as soon as possible.

Temporarily, parameter mapping and preset browsing via KOMPLETE KONTROL and MASCHINE are not possible on macOS systems, as necessary NKS components cannot be installed at this time.

Mac models without ‘Metal’ support are not supported with V13.
