Ascension does not accept my license file or crashes my DAW
Perform a clean install. Follow these steps carefully:
• Locate and delete your Ascension Data Library folder, you set this location manually when you download and installed Ascension.
The Data Library can be found in 2 ways if you do not know it's location:
1) If you have access to the Plug-In choose 'Open Data Folder' from Ascension's Browser Menu here:
2) Search your computer for Ascension Data Library - you should should find a folder named "ASCENSION 1.5 DATA LIBRARY" ( this name may vary depending on your store of purchase and Ascension version number).
• Delete your Ascension configuration folder:
(PC location) 'Documents > CubicAudio > Ascension'
(Mac location) 'Mac HD > Library > Application Support > CubicAudio > Ascension'
• Re-download Ascension 1.5 or the latest available version from your store of purchase and unzip the file, ensuring that you receive no errors.
• Re-install Ascension.
• Open your DAW and launch Ascension - you will be prompted to locate your 'data' library folder - ensure that you choose the 'data' folder from your new download - version 1.0.1 data is not compatible with Ascension 1.5 or above.
• Generate a new license file using your serial number and activation link - do not use any special characters in your name, ensure that your email address is correct. Save this file to your desktop.
• Open the Ascension in your DAW.
• Choose Ascension > OPTIONS > Settings
• Choose 'Import License', using the 'my-name.license.asl' file from your desktop.
• If Ascension is correctly licensed you will see your name on the Settings screen:
