If you have used the Pulse Downloader before, please sign into your account, click "Add Product" then paste in your serial code and click REDEEM.
New users to Pulse, please go to the Pulse homepage and download the Pulse downloader, then create a new account in pulse (link below)
- Open pulse
- Click +Add a product, paste in the serial code you received via email from Pulse, click "redeem".
- Choose where you wish to download the installer (You will get to choose where to install the main content when you start the installer after downloading)
- Once downloaded: Windows→ the installer will auto start. Apple→ the installer will open a finder window, manually click on the .PKG file to open the installer.
- MAC OS: In the installer, when you reach "Destination Type" you can choose where to install the content (sample pool) by clicking on the folder icon and choosing a new location. (If the installer says you do not have enough disk space, please follow this guide:install guide IN DEPTH for MAC OS (recommended)) , wait for the installer to complete (this can take some time)
- WINDOWS: In the installer, when you reach "Select Content Location" you can choose where to install the content (sample pool), wait for the installer to complete (this can take some time)
- Open your DAW (like Logic, Cubase, Studio One, Reaper and so on) and insert a new instrument. You will find our instruments under "Virharmonic" in your plug-in Manager. Once opened, paste in the same serial code you used for Pulse into the box and click activate. (Logic Users will need to restart Logic for the Activation to take affect)
→ Important!
The installer will allow you to place the sample pool on any hard drive (SSD recommended) but the plugin files will install to a pre determined fixed location and cannot be changed
(this is how Windows and Mac work for VST/AU/AAX)
Do not install the sample files to any restricted locations or cloud syncing folders like: Program Files, Desktop, Downloads, Documents, Pictures
