Since we decided to go with Mac OS 9.2.2 and Pro Tools 5.1.3 in the studio im looking for the last version of Waves TDM for Mac OS 9.

Is version 4 the last? Does anyone have it?

Thanks!

[Knezzen]

Anyone?

Found these: http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/waves-40-waves-au-shell-101 on Macintosh Garden, but they are OSX only.
They wont load in Pro Tools 5.1.3cs11 running on Mac OS 9. Too bad, because there seems to be a TDM version in the package.

There at least WAS a Waves 4.0 for Mac OS 9. Taken from the Waves site from 2003 (http://web.archive.org/web/20030729195553/http://waves.com/)

Features and Benefits:

• Apple OS X support and many of the new OS X generation of DAWs - ProTools 6, Cubase SX 1.0.5, Spark 2.5, and Peak 3.2.
  
• Continued OS 9 support
  
  • Simpler authorization procedure
    
  • Pricing scaled for your Waves setup
    
    • Free version updates for a full year with the Waves Update Plan (WUP)
  
  So if anyone has it, please share it

According to Waves 4.0 manual:

applications as follows :

So the first question is where to find Waves 4.0 for Mac Os 9. And the second question will be: How we can do with iLok authorization? 

[Knezzen]

There is a trial resetter for Waves 4.0 for Mac OS X at least.
Otherwise I could pretty much buy it if it wont work

[Knezzen]

Interestingly enough it seems like I have Waves 4.0 RTAS and TDM in a sit file on my system! Wonderful!

Will try it out now and keep everyone posted

[Knezzen]

Typically I seem to have the Gold Bundle (all the Waves plugins), but they won't load since I don't have the file "WavesLib 4.0_9". Bleh.
Tried using the same file from the OSX version (since it's carbon, I figured it might work), but no. Renamed 4.0_X to 4.0_9, but to no use.

Guess I'm stuck with Waves 3 for a little while longer.

surprised noones come forward with waves 4.0! 

[Sanek]

I have it. Does anyone still need it?

Can upload it to disk. However, it's the trial version for 15 days. you have to reset the trial counter by parallel-loading into OS X and running special tool (Ilok trial reset) after trial expiration (every 15 days - above). I can also upload it. it also works magic for sonnox stuff (same eternal trial trick).

same eternal trial trick

I'm all for tricks!! That certainly would be interesting to try! The whole OS9-X crossover period sure can get confusing and I'm continually surprised when stuff like this pops up!!

The trial reset can be done in Mac Os 9 too, without the need of an Os X installation.

Using InterLok Engine v 5.0.5 it is really easy to reset the counter:

Delete the content of "HFSExtentTables" folder inside "TheVolumeSettingsFolder" (this folders and files are invisibles). And perform a Desktop rebuild.

This was discussed and tested  here :

Thanx for the tip!
So, should I upload?

[DieHard]

Yes... please upload/attachment the rest tool and I will put it permanently on the Download boards

[Enabler]

I have the complete Toast CD image of the last version for OS9 V4r4
I can't log into the ADrive anymore to upload it. It's 637 megs so posting it here on this thread probally won't work

[DieHard]

I will PM ya

[supernova777]

enabler is the man 

[Sanek]

There are a couple of versions of V4. I have 4.0.9 and 4.3.

[supernova777]

mediafire is a great site to use to upload such cd images,
this gives our admins + our users access to the files at the same time..
plus no need to wait for anyone to upload it
admins will backup whatever important images on our own fileserver for safe keeping.

There was another distributive in the directory, I've included it too, but I don't remember if I installed it or not... Just try v4 installer first.
