It’s very simple. Surf around the site and find a product or two you like. You click the ‘add to cart‘ button. Once paid via Paypal or Credit Card secure transfers (provided by FastSpring), you will be redirected to an order confirmation page. Download links will be instantly provided to you. We are hosted on good servers, so you should be getting your download fast, depending on your connection. For security, we limit the number of download attempts and time period that the links are active. However, if you have any trouble successfully downloading any or all of the data, just let us know and we’ll manage the issue.

We do strongly recommend that you use a high-speed internet connection when downloading our libraries, as these libraries may be very large in size, specially if based on sampled content. We also cannot guarantee that our servers are able to support any form of “download manager” software, so we suggest to disable them before trying any download of our products.

Send us an email, including your order reference number, if you’re having any trouble downloading your library and we’ll do whatever it takes to get your libraries to you quickly as possible.

We recommend using latest version of Google Chrome, which generally produces the fastest and most reliable download results as well optimal shopping experience. Unfortunately some versions of other internet browsers are having issues remembering items in the cart.

A transfer fee of €10/$10 will be applied you purchased the plugin second hand from another user. Please get in touch with us with your order number and the details for the new owner.

IF YOU ARE NOT REGISTERED TO OUR USER AREA:

Unfortunately, when you upgrade to High Sierra, your HFS+ file system will be automatically converted to the new APFS format. APFS does not support hard links and the links from ~/Library/Application Support/Logic and ~/Music/Audio Music Apps will break on those systems using this method of mirroring. In your Music directory you’ll find a broken symbolic link to Audio Music Apps that doesn’t go anywhere. If that’s your scenario, please do as follow:

• Remove the broken “Audio Music Apps” symbolic link in Music
• Create a new “Audio Music Apps” folder
• In Finder’s menu, select Go->Go to Folder… and insert: /.HFS+ Private Directory Data
• Once opened, go in Audio Music Apps, select all its content and press CMD+C
• Go in your new Music\Audio Music Apps folder and press CMD+V

Once the copy is completed, you’ll be up and running again

Just register to our User Area using the same email address you used for your purchases. Once registered you’ll find everything you need in there.

Basically, yes. Since Garage Band is a stripped down version of Logic Pro X, our plugins will work but sometimes GarageBand might ask to lower its security settings to properly load the plugin.

Just go ahead and the plugin will be ready to be used.

Windows 10 Fall Update introduced a new Windows Defender feature called “Controlled Folder Access” to prevent ransom-wares taking control of your computer. Unfortunately, this feature seems to block some installers from copying the files to the locations required by the plugin.

A workaround is to temporary disable CFA, install the plugin and enable it again.

Please follow the steps below:

1. Open Windows Defender Security Center
2. Go to Virus & threat protection – Virus & threat protection settings
3. Scroll down to Controlled Folder Access
4. Temporarily turn off Controlled Access
5. Then try running the installer and see if it completes
6. Turn Control Access back to on

All Audiority soundbanks and sample libraries require the full retail version of virtual instruments they’re developed for. Always keep your software updated and, please, let us know if you run into any trouble at all and we’ll see if we can find a work-around.

We use the Zip or RAR formats to compress our products. Once you’ve downloaded the archive file, extract it to wherever you like and follow the install instructions provided with the product or on the product page.

Here’s a link to Winrar for PC: http://www.win-rar.com/download.html
Here’s a link to UnRarX for OSX: http://www.unrarx.com/

We also suggest to keep a backup copy of your purchased products.

On Mac:
Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics/STEAM/Omnisphere/Settings Library/Patches/User

On Windows Vista/Seven:
C:\ProgramData\Spectrasonics\STEAM\Omnisphere\Settings Library\Patches\User

Please remember that ProgramData is usually an hidden folder, so is faster to just type this path on your address bar.

On Windows XP:
C:\Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spectrasonics\STEAM\Omnisphere\Settings Library\Patches\User

Earlier versions of Omnisphere v2 lack this option from the Utility menu. Please update to the latest version.

There is a product database file that Native Access updates every time it launches. To update the database, try the following:
1) Open NI’s Native Access program and log out. The log out option isn’t easy to see but find it and log out.
2) Close the program.
3) Run the program again AS ADMINISTRATOR.
4) Close Native Access program, but DON’T log out.
5) Run Kontakt again and The Performer should be there again.

It seems the logging in and out is necessary to properly refresh the database which NI’s development team has now updated.

If that doesn’t work, please download this XML file, uncompress it and move it into your NI Service Center / Access folder located here:
OSX: Macintosh HD > Library > Application Support > Native Instruments > Service Center
Windows: C > Program Files > Common Files > Native Instruments > Service Center
