Software Compatibility

Most software is compatible with both macOS and Windows, but check to make sure.

If you're using Pro Tools, AAX plug-ins are what you need. Most other DAWs on macOS support Audio Units (AU) plug-ins, while VST is compatible with many DAWs on both macOS and Windows. Be sure you choose plug-ins that work with your DAW!

WaveLab Elements 13 raises the mastering bar again

Many of the WaveLab Elements users here at Sweetwater have been ardent WaveLab devotees for the past 25 years. As such, WaveLab Elements 13's feature updates have suitably impressed us. For starters, the next-generation MasterRig 2 plug-in suite has undergone a number of compelling functional and graphical improvements, adding even more value to WaveLab Elements’ already robust processing tool kit. It allows you to access clip-related menus instantly, reducing clicks and accelerating your editing workflow. Beyond that, you can easily adjust pre- or post-effect clip gain using convenient pop-up sliders. Finally, random colors can now be applied to all tracks.

Select manufacturers may require that only the manufacturer’s products qualify towards the minimum purchase amount needed to be eligible for promotional financing. Otherwise, an invoice that meets the minimum purchase amount and contains at least one qualifying manufacturer product is eligible for promotional financing. No interest will be charged on promo purchase balance, and equal monthly payments are required on promo purchase until it is paid in full. The payments equal the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next whole dollar. These payments may be higher than the payments that would be required if this purchase was a non-promo purchase. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to the prior months’ rounding. Regular account terms apply to non-promo purchases. New Accounts as of 07/31/2025: Purchase APR is 34.99%. Penalty APR is 39.99%. Min Interest Charge is $2. Existing cardholders: See your credit card agreement terms. Subject to credit approval.

The estimated required monthly payment shown which excludes taxes and delivery equals the amount financed divided by the number of months in the promo period, rounded up to the next cent. During the last month(s) of the promo period the required monthly payment may be reduced due to this rounding. These payments apply only with the financing offer shown. If you make these payments by the due date each month, you should pay off this amount financed within the promo period, if it is the only balance you are paying off. If you have other balances on your account, this payment will be added to any other minimum monthly payments.
