WAVES Native Plugins/License Center Update (OS X 10.10 Compatible)
Follow-up from a reader (thanks John) that sent notes on OS X 10.10 & WAVES plugin for Logic earlier this week:
"... We are pleased to announce that all Waves Native plugins V9 as well as the Waves License Center are now fully compatible with Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite. Click here to download the updated installer.
(See Download link at www.waves.com/osx-yosemite)

Please note: SoundGrid plugins and software applications are not yet supported by Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite. We are working to resolve this compatibility issue as soon as possible.

If further assistance is required, you are more than welcome to contact our tech support team.
Best regards,
The Waves Team"
