As of January 2016, Waves have announced that they will stop supporting the TDM format. Any plug-ins installed or updated via the Waves Central application will not support TDM and will cause previously installed plug-ins to not support TDM.

If you need TDM support, Waves advise you to follow these steps:

• Download this offline installer for Mac | Windows, covering the most recent versions of TDM-compatible Waves software.

• Download and install Waves Central for Mac | Windows. If you already have Waves Central installed, skip to step 3.

• Launch Waves Central.

  • Windows: via the desktop shortcut or Start Menu > All Programs > Waves. 

  • Mac: Applications > Waves Central.

• Click on Install Products.

• In the left-hand panel, click on Select Offline Installer, browse to the offline installer you downloaded in step 1, and select it.

• In the middle panel, select the products you wish to install.

• In the right-hand panel, click Install.

• The products you selected are now installed.

Note that if you use Waves Central to install or update Waves plug-ins in any way other than using the above offline installer, your newly installed plug-ins will not support TDM, and you will lose TDM support for any Waves plug-ins previously installed on your computer.
