Installing Tone2 products on Mac
After ordering a product from us, you will receive an email with download links, after downloading your product you will have a PKG file. You received a key-file (*.t2k) in the email with the download links from Shareit. This key-file is used to unlock the full version. Do not open or edit this key-file with a text editor! This will damage the file!
Below you will find both automatic and manual authorization procedures, follow the steps in either of these to authorize your product.
A) Automatic product installation
1) Exit your host program (e.g. Logic, Ableton...). Make sure that you closed it completely!
2) Double-click on the PKG file and install the full version of the plugin: Note: the demo versions cannot be unlocked.
3) If you are on macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) or you need to reboot your Mac. Otherwise it does not detect new Audio Units.
4) Open your host program.
5) Do a plugin re-scan in the host if it does not list the plugin you just installed. Detailed instructions on how to perform a re-scan can be found in your host's manual. Reboot the Mac if the plugin still can't be found.
