Locating & providing session logs for Hex FX

Session logs are generated when Hex FX is used. They may be able to help us diagnose issues with both the plug-in and it's activation process.

How to locate & send session logs

  1. Recreate your issue, in the shortest set of steps possible
  2. Close your DAW and Hex FX instances, and locate the folder via the following directory path;
    • macOS: Macintosh HD → Users → yourusername → Library* → Application Support → Serato → Serato Hex FX → Logslogsmacoshex.pngReveal the hidden Library folder on macOS by navigating to the parent folder, then pressing CMD + SHIFT + PERIOD/FULL STOP (.) on your keyboard, or holding OPTION on your keyboard after clicking on the Go Finder menu.
    • Windows: C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Serato\Serato Hex FX\Logs
      Reveal the hidden AppData folder on Windows by clicking VIEW > SHOW > HIDDEN ITEMS (enable) or VIEW > OPTIONS > CHANGE FOLDER AND SEARCH OPTIONS > VIEW (tab) > ADVANCED SETTINGS > SHOW HIDDEN FILES, FOLDERS AND DRIVES > OK (confirm)
  3. Right-click on the Logs folder (or the specific .log file inside the Logs folder, that you know to be relevant) and choose Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder on Windows, or Compress on macOS.
    A .zip file will be created in the Logs folder, give it a name.
  4. Open a help request and attach the resulting Logs.zip file from above, with a detailed description about your problem, what you did / were doing when the problem occurred, and if possible, which specific session log file was relevant (if sending the entire folder).
