A LITTLE HELP

Need a hand?

macOS will not open the installer

Confirm that the package came from your Patch DNA account and matches the filename and SHA-256 below. For this unsigned package, macOS may require approval in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway.

Keep macOS security enabled. If approval is unavailable or you are unsure about the file, contact support.

The plug-in does not appear in your DAW

Restart your DAW and rescan VST3 or Audio Units. The installed plug-in name is Patch DNA The Techno.

The universal binaries support Apple Silicon and Intel. Release DAW testing was performed on Apple Silicon in Ableton Live; Intel DAW operation has not been separately validated.

Activation or reinstallation

Check your connection and use your The Techno key. If network filtering prevents the connection, review its settings; keep macOS security enabled. Reinstallation preserves existing license state and Creations.

If the issue continues, tell support the message you saw and the last step you completed. Never send your license key.
