HOUZY

Download HOUZY

Latest version 5.0.3 · 26.10.2026

Windows 10/11 · 64-bit
macOS 10.15+ · Apple Silicon & Intel

Close your DAW before installing or updating — a running DAW keeps the plugin file locked.

Windows. Run HOUZY-Setup.exe. The plugin goes to C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3.

Windows without the installer. Unzip the VST3 archive and put HOUZY.vst3 into C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3.

macOS. Double-click HOUZY-Installer.pkg and tick the formats you want: AU for Logic Pro and GarageBand, VST3 for everything else. Both are Universal (Apple Silicon and Intel).

The package is not signed with an Apple certificate yet, so macOS blocks it on first launch. Right-click the file → Open → Open again in the warning. Or: System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway. Nothing is broken — macOS treats every unsigned installer this way.

Installing by hand. Put HOUZY.vst3 into /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/ or HOUZY.component into /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/, then clear the quarantine in Terminal (only the line for what you installed):

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/HOUZY.vst3
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/HOUZY.component

Restart your DAW and rescan plugins.

Trial and activation

  1. Open HOUZY. The licence window offers a free trial — everything works while it runs. The time left is shown in the window and in the ACRONA card.
  2. To keep HOUZY, press BUY. Payment is on Gumroad; your licence key comes in the purchase email and is always in your Gumroad Library.
  3. In HOUZY press ACTIVATE, paste the key, press ACTIVATE again. Internet is needed once; after that HOUZY works offline.
  4. One key works on two computers. Moving to a new one: open the licence window on the old computer and press DEACTIVATE.

If something goes wrong

  • No email with the key — check the email you used for the order, including spam, then your Gumroad Library: the key is always there. Still nothing? Contact Gumroad support — they handle orders and keys.
  • "No connection to the licence server" — check your internet and press ACTIVATE again. A server hiccup never takes away a licence that is already active.
  • "Already active on the maximum number of computers" — deactivate it on one of them, or write to us.
  • Any other problem: the REPORT button in the licence window copies everything we need — paste it into your email.
