Waves Vitamin is free - but how do you download it?

Post by David Polich »

I got an email from Waves about their new "Vitamin" plug-in, and it said it was now included
in the Gold, Platinum, and Mercury bundles and existing bundle owners could get it for free.

However, I've had zero luck finding it. When I launch the Waves License Center and login, it
says I am currently up to date (Waves 9.2.0). Apparently there is a version 9.2.1 which does
include the Vitamin plug-in. I see nothing on my account page about 9.2.1 or where to download it.

Any Waves bundle owners out there who can comment on this?

If you go to the Waves support site and login, you should see an update for your bundle which downloads a new WLC which then downloads the update plugin versions.

David,

On your account page, if you look at the bundle you have, does it show "Latest Version" with a checkmark next to it or does it show something like "Update Available?" The latter is what mine displayed, and clicking that downloaded the new WLC and gave me the update with Vitamin included.
