How To Sell Waves Plugins?

Bang · 12th November 2006

Hey folks, I bought the Waves SSL bundle Native which sound fantastic. The only issue is that the Eq sounds very similar to the Neotek Elite EQ that I use and I have two SSL style analog buss comps, so I've realized that I must have purchased the plugins more to see how close they were rather then need for that sound. So what are the steps on selling waves plugin? Can I just sell the ilok and a copy of the software?

You could just sell the ilok, but the buyer won't be able to get support or upgrades to the software.

Here are the steps I took:

1. Get Waves fully WUP'ed. Waves won't transfer ownership without you being in current WUP.

2. There's a $150 transfer fee payable to Waves to transfer ownership of the software. Waves will fax you a transfer form which you can fill out and fax back. Then either you or the purchaser can pay the $150 fee.

3. Either you or the buyer can pay iLok.com the $100 transfer fee to transfer the iLok from one account to another. This option is not listed on ilok.com and you have to email their support with the request, the ilok accounts and a credit card number. This option is also handy to mass transfer more then 4 ilok licenses instead of paying $25 per license.

For buyers, especially those with existing WUP's, sometimes it's easier and cheaper just to buy new Waves software, which extends your current WUP, than to buy someone elses Waves plugs.

Good luck!
