i have dl the free voxengo span vst to my desktop on my mac, i am having trouble where to go from here i read the txt.doc attached with it, but im not super computer smart

You should mount the DMG archive (which you already did since
you are reading this file) and, depending on the plug-in format,
copy the 'component' or 'vst' package from it into the
corresponding plug-in folder located in the
'/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/' folder on the harddisk. After this
has been done you will need to order your audio application to
rescan plug-ins, or if that option is unavailable you will need
to re-start this application.

but i can work this out pls HELP for Mac too

Ok done, iv dropped the scan.vst file into the hd libary vst folder etc, im using logic 9 so im not sure on where to re scan if i need to or not, appreciate the help

It will either say successfully validated or crashed validation - if it crashes, sometimes just scanning it again will work How about a ticket to Bondi Beach *yep right folder, make sure you restart if you haven't*
