Download the vst3 presets from the download section under the Lector FAQ list and copy them to the following folder:
Local disk C\User\xxxxx\Documents\VST3Presets\Waldorf\Lector
(The xxxxx stand for your user name)
Also make sure that the folder is called “Lector” and not “Lector Presets” for example.
Our plugins are made to be used as an instrument in a DAW, like Ableton Live, Cubase, Logic, Bitwig etc. You can call up the plugins within those programs. Runnin them as a standalone application is not possible. The Waldorf Edition contains 3 plugins (Attack, PPG2 and D-Pole). Attack and PPG must be loaded as instruments and D-Pole as audio FX.
Right-click (Ctrl+click) the package you’ve downloaded, and select Open or go on Open with and choose the standard installation program. Now click on Open in the next pop-up and the installation will start.
Further information can be found here.
We made a system change in December 2016. Since then, we no longer work with the eLicenser, but use an in-house licensing system. It is no longer possible to carry out new installations with an eLicenser.
If you need a new licence, please contact our support:
support@waldorfmusic.com
Enter the activation info manually, not with copy and paste.
Please load the plugin in another DAW. On Mac, you can use Garageband. On Windows, you may use the free VSTHOST/SAVIHost. Activate it there and then load it again from the DAW that you normally use.
We use our own in-house licensing system which is fully software based. A dongle is not neccessary. Our software can not be installed using an eLicenser anymore.
With the purchase of one license, the software can be installed and used on up to 3 computers simultaneously.
A license transfer is possible.
Make sure that your license is on our current system. This is the case when your license shows up in myWaldorf at my licenses.
Sell your license to another person. After the sale, send a message using the support form. Your message must contain:
- which software you want to transfer
- a copy of the invoice or a proof of purchase of your software purchase
- the e-mail address that has been used to register the license on you and
- the e-mail address and name from the person who now owns the license
We will check if everything is OK and then transfer the license to the new owner.
