WaveShell-AU 9.3.70
WaveShell-AU is Waves Audio's Audio Unit plugin wrapper and shell interface used by digital audio workstations (DAWs) and audio editing applications on macOS. It allows Waves audio plugins (compressors, EQs, reverbs, mixing tools and effects) to be loaded and used within compatible host applications including Logic Pro, Final Cut Pro, GarageBand, Audacity and other AU-compatible software. The shell manages plugin communication, automation, presets and parameter linking between the Waves plugin suite and the host DAW.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWaveShell-AU is not a standalone application but a plugin component that must be installed and updated through Waves Audio's official installer and update tool, Waves Central. To update WaveShell-AU to a native Apple Silicon build (which Waves has shipped since version 13 or later), download and open Waves Central from the Waves website, sign in with your Waves account, and check for plugin updates. Waves Central will automatically detect which plugins you own and present available updates, including native arm64 builds for all current plugin versions. Simply select WaveShell-AU and any other Waves plugins you use and click Update; Waves Central will handle the installation into your DAW's plugin folder. If you are running an older Intel-only version of WaveShell-AU, updating through Waves Central will replace it with the native build. Note that your host DAW (Logic Pro, Final Cut Pro, etc.) must also be running a native Apple Silicon build for the native Waves plugin to function optimally, though most modern DAWs already ship natively.
