INSTALLATION & AUTHORIZATION

Downloading Iris 2

Downloading and installing Iris 2 is quick and easy, and the software that you download for our

free, 10-day trial can simply be “switched on” to full activation by a simple authorization process.

If you want to try out a demo of Iris 2 for the ﬁrst time, are upgrading from Iris 1, or you just

purchased Iris 2 and are ready to install it on your computer, simply go to the Iris 2 page on the

iZotope website and click the “TRY” button:

If you are not already logged into the iZotope website, you will be prompted for an e-mail address

to log in or set up a new account. Once the login/registration process is complete, you’ll be

directed to the Iris 2 download page, where you can download our software for Mac or PC.

As noted on this page, anyone can download the full version of Iris 2. If you haven’t purchased

Iris 2 yet, the software will operate in Trial mode. If you have purchased Iris, you can authorize the

software with a valid Serial Number.

This single installer includes the Iris 2 software itself, a selection of our best presets, and a basic

library of samples and oscillator waveforms. The Iris 2 Installer downloads as an .EXE or .DMG ﬁle

that is just under 500 MB. For slower internet connections, this download can be paused using

your web-browser’s “Pause” feature, and resumed at a more convenient time.

Note to upgraders:

Downloading Iris 2 should not replace Iris 1 or any of its content. This means all the songs

and sessions you have created with Iris 1 should load as normal. Iris 2 has been completely

redesigned from the ground up, and because of this it will have a new sound all of its own, so you

may want to keep Iris 1 installed on your computer to maintain that original sound you used on

previous projects.
