Which Version of MDWEQ Do I Own?
Check your ‘iLok Manager’ application to determine the version of MDWEQ you own.

- If Pro Tools asks you to activate your license, it is likely that you have the wrong version of the plug-ins installed. In particular, for those who have MDWEQ6-AAX-Native, be sure to check your Plug-ins Folder and remove MDWEQ6-AAX out of the folder..
- Or you can simply install MDWEQ6-Native+ version which will automatically remove previously installed MDW EQs.
- If you’re attempting to upgrade/surrender your EQ5 license, do you have:
- MDWEQ5-AAX?
→ Your upgrade options are:
Upgrade from MDWEQ5-AAX to MDWEQ6-AAX+
Or
Upgrade from MDWEQ5-AAX to MDWEQ6-Native+ - MDWEQ5-AAX-Native
→ Your upgrade options are:
Upgrade from MDWEQ5-AAX-Native to MDWEQ6-AAX+
Or
Upgrade from MDWEQ5-AAX-Native to MDWEQ6-Native+
