How to update WG DAW Converter on your Mac
WG DAW Converter's developer publishes each version through a version feed at wg-apps.com. Below is how to run that update yourself, then how Floodtide does it for you, alongside every other app on the Mac.
Update WG DAW Converter by hand
- Download the current build from the developer. WG DAW Converter's developer publishes each release on their own site, with the download itself served from github.com. Get the Mac build from there.
- Replace the old copy. Quit WG DAW Converter, open the download and put the new WG DAW Converter in Applications in place of the old one: a disk image is dragged across, an installer package runs its own steps. Your settings and documents live outside the app and are kept.
That is one app. The same walk, through a different menu or page each time, is what every other app on the Mac asks of you, which is where Floodtide comes in.
The shorter route: one click in Floodtide
Floodtide's own signed catalog lists where WG DAW Converter's developer publishes each release, and Floodtide reads that source directly to learn which version is current. When yours is behind, the row appears under Updates with the version that is out, next to every other app on the Mac that is behind.
- The developer's own build is downloaded, with real progress.
- It is checked against a checksum where the source publishes one, otherwise against the developer signature of the copy already installed, and Gatekeeper has to accept it before anything is replaced.
- WG DAW Converter is asked to quit politely if it is open, and never forced.

Questions about WG DAW Converter
Does Floodtide update WG DAW Converter?
Yes. WG DAW Converter is in Floodtide's signed catalog, which reads WG DAW Converter's own release source, so it appears in your update list automatically when a newer version is published, with no configuration.
How does Floodtide install a new version of WG DAW Converter?
It downloads the developer's own build and checks it before anything on your Mac changes: against a checksum where the source publishes one, otherwise by requiring the same developer signature as the copy already installed, and Gatekeeper has to accept it. Then it quits WG DAW Converter if it is running and puts the new version in place.
Will updating WG DAW Converter lose my settings?
No. Floodtide replaces the application only. Preferences, licences and documents live outside it and are untouched.
