Manual downloads / Offline Install for my IK Purchases?

Hi everyone

I have purchased Total Studio 4 MAX and I have installed IK Product Manager.

My DAW is not an online machine and it is going to stay that way because I do not have any anti virus apps on it apart from Windows Defender.

It is purely a DAW and used for nothing else.
I normally connect to the net (Via a VPN) for a minute or two, once or twice a week, just so that any updates (mainly for Pro Tools 2024) can be downloaded but sometimes, if I am working away, on location then it could be two weeks or more before this happens.

In the IK Product Manager I started to install Mirozlav Philharmonik 2, the library of which seems huge and the product manager stated there were 7 files (I think) for the library.

The first one took 37 minutes to down load and after that I stopped the download.

That speed is way too slow and there is no way I am going to keep my DAW online for hours just to download IK stuff that I may or may not keep (I wont know until I have tried them out).

So that brings me to the subject of this post, are there any Manual downloads / Offline Install for my IK Purchases?

Thank you for any suggestions.

Caveat: the IK Product Manager in designed to take away the hassle. Only try this if you understand what you are doing.

You should be able to download and install the software and sounds libraries:

On an on-line system, use the IK Product Manager to Register whatever Serial Numbers that you have. Check that all the expected products are listed.

Go to your User Area / My Products area on the web site. Find each product and download the software and any associated sounds libraries, files etc. Move all the files to your DAW.

For each product, (unZip the file and?) run the installer. Do the software first, and where appropriate, set the desired folder for the sounds library in the Preference Settings. Then run the library installer(s).

When done, you will need to put your DAW online and run the IKPM and Authorise each product. (Unless the request off-line Authorization has been implemented.)
