Rock Warehouse – 'Sound Library Update' not installing (yes, Catalina again…)

[Clive Burnage]

Hi.

Just added Rock Warehouse to the collection – main 20gb installation worked fine, manual installation of MIDI also worked fine – but the ‘Sound Library Update’ hangs in the usual place due to 32bit incompatibility etc. The usual ‘download location’ workaround didn’t bring any joy.

Olof kindly let me have this manual work around when I previously ran into the same issue with SD3 update:

“In Product Manager, click Show Details under SD3 Library Part 1, open the small menu to the right of the update with the red Install button and select “Open in Finder” from that menu. This ensures that the DMG of the update is mounted. Keep Product Manager running in the background. Open Terminal (located in Applications > Utilities) and paste the following commands there:

cd /Volumes/TT387_Superior3_Library_Update
~/Library/Application Support/Toontrack/Product Manager/Installers/SDXU_1.4.0_22042/Sound Updater.app/Contents/MacOS/Sound Updater

…and press Enter. That should open the updater which will see that the library is installed and will let you install the update.”

That worked great, but what would be the revised / correct path for the Rock Warehouse update..?

Thanks! ?

The directory is correct but in the second command you have lost the backslashes before the spaces, so:

cd /Volumes/TT269_SDX_Rock_Warehouse_Update
~/Library/Application\ Support/Toontrack/Product\ Manager/Installers/SDXU_1.4.0_22042/Sound\ Updater.app/Contents/MacOS/Sound\ Updater

In a bid to be logically proactive, I tried running the following in Terminal with the Update mounted, but still no cigar ?

cd /Volumes/TT269_SDX_Rock_Warehouse_Update
~/Library/Application Support/Toontrack/Product Manager/Installers/SDXU_1.4.0_22042/Sound Updater.app/Contents/MacOS/Sound Updater
