Guitar Rig 5 Essentials - Install - Mac

Hello

I have purchased Guitar Rig 6 ( Native access ) and guitar rig 5 essentials was included in the download but always shows as a demo.

I have used guitar rig 5 earlier and am quite familiar with GUI and controls. All my presets are saved as guitar rig 5. Guitar rig 6 has issues and would prefer to use guitar rig 5. I am aware I can import GR5 presets into GR6 but always had issues with it and does not sound what it used to be on GR5.

What do i need to do to have this working.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Have a nice day

Regards

Vijay

@Vjay What version of Guitar Rig were you using before exactly? With what version did you save these presets?

Does Guitar Rig 5 show as demo in Native Access or does it show the demo message when loading a preset?

Do you have a M1 Mac or Intel? If it's a M1, that could be the issue here: GUITAR RIG 5, KONTAKT and SUPER 8 R2 Open as Demo Versions on Apple Silicon / M-Systems

Hello Jeremy

Thank you for your response. I am using a very old Mac Book Pro - 2015 ( Intel ) edition and guitar rig 5 worked fine. After my purchase Guitar Rig 5 essentials shows as " DEMO ". All my previously saved presets were saved on Guitar Rig 5 format. I know there is a export option in the new version but there are glitches and doesn't sound the same as with the older version and prefer to use guitar rig 5 !!

Any help will be appreciated to have " Guitar Rig Essentials " activated

Have a nice day

Regards

@Vjay So you saved the presets with the free version of Guitar Rig 5, aka Guitar Rig Essentials? And these were opening normally in GTR5 Essentials? I honestly don't remember the restrictions of this old version and if it allowed saving presets. IF it was working and now it's not, please get in touch with our installation/activation specialists here: http://bit.ly/NIsupport_install
