Default Free Softube Saturation Knob....How to install it?

I downloaded the free AAX Softube Saturation Knob. How do I install it? It's a dmg file? What downloaded was Softube Saturation Knob Installer (AAX) 1.3.9.dmg. Its not an installer, its just a file. Tried putting in the plug ins folder. Then tried putting it in AAX plug ins folder but its not showing up. ANy ideas?

Got it from here http://forms.avid.com/forms/AAXplugi...0140000000U35L

Just so you don't feel alone: I was so quick to hop on a free plugin that I completely did not see it was mac only until I finished d/l it and saw the .dmg

Like I said, Softube hates Hobos.

I didnt bother to look to see that it was just Mac. I dont have a Mac so I have no idea what a pmg file is. Lol I have to laugh at myself though. Im a big dummy. I so wanted to try this plug in though because Softube makes some of my favorite plug ins. I use the FET Comp on just about everything. Bass Amp Room is a go to for direct bass as well. Wonder why windows guys cant get this plug? Id even pay for it. I love me a good saturatator

Hi Tom,

How do you find that plugin compared to Softube stuff or Phoenix II or maybe HEAT? Just wondering if it is worth to purchase...

Thank you. Regards! Thomas

You can demo it. I used this instead of VCC before I bought HEAT. They all have their flavors but the Mellowmuse sounds good.

Hey Carl, you are right...I always forget the possibility of the "demo" option. And I do get carried away when it comes to PT stuff so I already bought the Vintage Bundle which includes SATV... so I will find out if it is okay or not soon enough... Must remember the word DEMO next time!
