Default Re: Free plugins can't be installed

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your reply.

According to the info from Solid State Logic when I purchased SSL 2+ my offer includes "The light version of the industry-standard Pro Tools music production software, with an exclusive collection of 23 AAX plug-ins including the Classic Compressors Bundle: BF-2A, BF-3A, Purple Audio MC77, Fairchild 660 and Fairchild 670."

So far, so good. All the items are available to me under "My Products" on my Avid account. In my world it wouldn't make any sense putting the plugins there if they're not compatible with Pro Tools First?

I installed the DAW and these 5 plugin packs with no issues: (and as far as I can tell they also work as intended):

- Classic Compressors Bundle 18.8 (Mac) (55.02 MB)
- Eleven Lite 12.0 (Mac) (11.08 MB)
- In-Tune digital tuner 12.0 (Mac) (7.86 MB)
- Sci-Fi Ring Modulator 12.0 (Mac) (8.14 MB)
- Vari-Fi Speed Shifter 12.4 (Mac) (7.77 MB)

However, the following 14 plugins can NOT be installed:

- BBD Delay 18.8 (Mac) (2.31 MB)
- Black Op Distortion 18.8 (Mac) (2.09 MB)
- Black Spring Reverb 18.8 (Mac) (2.13 MB)
- C1 Chorus 18.8 (Mac) (2.12 MB)
- DC Distortion 18.8 (Mac) (2.6 MB)
- Flanger 18.8 (Mac) (2.36 MB)
- Graphic EQ 18.8 (Mac) (1.85 MB)
- Gray Compressor 18.8 (Mac) (2.21 MB)
- Green JRC Overdrive 18.8 (Mac) (2.1 MB)
- Orange Phaser 18.8 (Mac) (2.33 MB)
- Roto Speaker 18.8 (Mac) (2.04 MB)
- Studio Reverb 18.8 (Mac) (2.04 MB)
- Tape Echo 18.8 (Mac) (2.32 MB)
- Tri-Knob Fuzz 18.8 (Mac) (2.29 MB)

So, the question is: Is this a software issue that Avid can fix, or is there another way to work around this? My system won't even let me open these packs. Again, the message I get on my Mac is: "xxxxx.pkg" cannot be opened because Apple cannot investigate whether it contains malicious software. This software needs to be updated. Contact the developer for more information."

Grateful for any help.

Best regards,

Anders
