How many presets does Pegasus include?

How big is Pegasus on my hard drive?
The Windows installer is around 2 GB. Once installed, Pegasus takes about 5 GB on your drive.
Can I use Pegasus to sell beats and place tracks commercially?
Yes. All Cosmos Instruments products are 100% royalty-free. Use Pegasus on any beat you sell, place or license. No additional royalties owed.
Is the website secure for purchases?
Yes. Cosmos Instruments runs over HTTPS / SSL. Payments are processed by Stripe and PayPal (industry-standard encryption). We never store card details on our servers.
The installer launched but nothing seems to happen, what should I do?
The installer can take 30 to 60 seconds to load on systems without an SSD (it unpacks ~2 GB). On Windows, run the installer as Administrator. On macOS, see the next question.
macOS says "Pegasus can't be opened because the developer is unidentified". How do I fix this?
On first launch, right-click the plugin file in Finder → Open → Open anyway. Alternatively go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Allow anyway next to the Pegasus notification. One-time step.
On how many computers can I install Pegasus?
You can install Pegasus on up to 3 personal computers (your studio, your laptop, your second machine). For studio installations beyond that, contact us.
How do I receive updates?
Updates are pushed via your Cosmos Instruments account dashboard. You'll receive an email when a new version ships. All updates are free for life.
Will I get lifetime access if I purchase Pegasus?
Yes, except in cases of misuse (account sharing, redistribution). All updates are free for life.
