I am unable to run the Installer, what can I do?
If for some reason the installer fails to run, try opening the installer with right click -> open.
This usually solves the problem. Our Editors only interact with the hardware unit, so they’re safe to use.
Where is the Editor User Manuals located?
We are writing User Manuals as we proceed with the version xx.xx.xx updates.
All manuals will be available in https://auraplugins.com/support/ once the product update is wrapped up. Alternatively you can find the manual download from the product downloads page.

No. The FULL installer will overwrite the DEMO version in your hard drive.

Do I need a internet connection to activate the Editor?
No, you can purchase the Editor license from our store and download the license.key + full installers and take them to your offline computer for setup. Internet connection has advantages like automated update check which usually is something that improves the Editor usage!
How do I add the license for the Editor to register?
UPDATE 2023-August-28
[ version 1.x & 2.x ] license.key needs to be located in:
[ WINDOWS ] ”login username”DocumentsMystery Islands Music”plug-in name”
[ macOS ] /Library/Audio/Presets/Mystery Islands Music/”plug-in name”/
…in order to register. Reload your project or plug-in instance in order to validate.
[ version “3” ie. 25.12.11 ]
Downloaded license.key must be renamed to “(plugin name).license” and placed in: Users/(your username)/Music/AURA Plugins/(plugin name)/ folder.
To make this easy, click on “register” text in the top left corner to open the file browser dialog and open the license file with it. Rest will be automated.
Why Editor says reload license after copying license to right folder?
There are usually two reasons for that:
- Editor has failed to read the license file. Make sure the license doesn’t have any additional extensions ie. “Access Virus Editor.license.txt”. If you see .txt appended, rename the file to “Access Virus Editor.license” and try to validate again.
- Editor has failed to locate the license file. Make sure the license is in the Editor data folder (versions 1.x-2.x):
Macintosh HD/Library/Audio/Presets/Mystery Islands Music/(plugin name)/license.key
Note that new version has a new location AND name for license. Sample below:
~/Music/AURA Plugins/Access Virus Editor/Access Virus Editor.license
Can I use my license on multiple computers?
Yes, as long as the computer is yours. If we get a support request made with your license data, your account might be compromised and opted for permanent removal.
Can I transfer my license to someone else when I sell the synth?
No. Editor license fee covers support for one customer only. If the license is transferred to a 3rd party, we will revoke the license and download access.
