How to Solve Logic Pro Rescanning Waves Every Launch

Last updated on: 7/6/2022 2:43:35 AM

If Logic Pro automatically rescans Waves plugins each time it is launched on your system, learn how to solve this by removing all remnants of older Waves versions and installing only the versions you have licenses for.

1. Quit Logic Pro.
2. Launch the Waves Centraland check to see if you have application via Applications > Waves Central.
3. Log into Waves Central using your Waves account information.
4. Go to the Settings tab.
5. Under Maintenance, select all plugin versions in the dropdown menu, and click Uninstall.
6. Click the Install Products page and select the My Products tab to see only the licenses you own / are demoing.
7. Select all in My Products and review the selections in the Summary section. If you have a mix of versions – the correct version will be installed for each license (except for V9 licenses)
8. Click on the Install button. If you are activating licenses as well, the button will read Install and Activate.
9. Launch Logic Pro – it will rescan this first time and should not repeat this scan in future launches (unless new plugins are added of course).

If this did not work, or you have V9 licenses, Contact Technical Support.
