Installation and Use

The software has grown to a considerable size over the past several years when the entire plugin package was reinvented with the addition of numerous advanced tools. Today, this plugin package clocks in at but under 5GB in size, requiring users to spend a little time for both download and integration into their work system. The installation procedure will try to detect all the DAW apps present in your system.

As for the system requirements, they are not as modest as you would expect. Developers of this advanced audio software package recommend Waves to be installed on PCs with strong CPUs (Intel Core i3 / i5 / i7 / Xeon / AMD Quad-Core), at least 4 GB of system memory (8 GB is highly recommended), and at least 8 GB of free storage space.
