Download and install
Choose your operating system and Vectorworks version. The same installer is used for trials and purchases.
Your download will be available after access verification.
Install the package matching your Vectorworks version.
1. Install the plugin
- Close Vectorworks.
- Extract the entire ZIP into a separate folder. Do not run the installer from inside the archive.
- Run Install Soundvision.cmd. Keep Add Soundvision menu selected.
- Start Vectorworks and open or create a document.
If Windows displays a publisher warning, first check that you downloaded the archive from this page. If unsure, send the warning text to support.
- Quit Vectorworks and extract the entire ZIP.
- Open Install Soundvision.app from the extracted folder. This build requires macOS 14 or later.
- Start Vectorworks and open or create a document.
If macOS blocks the installer, send the exact warning to support. Do not disable system protection.
2. Activate your licence
Open Soundvision → Soundvision License → Activate…, paste the key from your email and click Activate. The first activation requires an internet connection.
If you already activated a trial, keep the same key after purchasing. Refresh your licence status; you do not need to reinstall. Your perpetual licence includes one year of updates.
Troubleshooting
- Soundvision menu missing: restart Vectorworks. If needed, add the Soundvision commands using the workspace editor or contact support.
- Key rejected: copy the complete key without surrounding spaces and check your internet connection.
- Still showing a trial after purchase: refresh the licence in Soundvision License. Do not pay again.
- Email missing: check Spam. The payment receipt and licence email arrive separately.
