Download Sapphire Plug-ins 2.04 for Apple FxPlug products
FREE TRIAL - You can download and use a fully functional copy of Sapphire Plug-ins. After a 2-week trial period, the plug-ins will output a watermark unless you purchase and enter a serial number. If your machine is already licensed for Sapphire v2 for After Effects and compatible products, this version should just automatically share that license when installed.
The installer below is for use with all FxPlug compatible products including Final Cut Pro, Final Cut Express and Motion. Mac OS 10.4 and 10.5 Leopard are supported. For After Effects, Premiere Pro or Combustion, please use the AE version instead.
