Re: Pluggo (Re: Logelloop multitrack realtime audio looper for MAC OS 10.4 and 10.5)



I can vouch for two things, Per.  First, that cycling74 folks are very good with challenge/response stuff.  If you're using two partitions on one machine and then need a second response for another separate machine and explain the situation, they are very flexible.  it will indeed be completely two licenses.  Folks at this company are among the most 'musician-oriented' of any company, and I can't say enough about every one of them, even up to Zicarelli himself.  Top Down they're great for customer service and support, even from a "we'd like to figure this out for ourselves" sort of vantage point.

As far as Ilok goes, I prefer just to license machines, but I have run into situations where i wished I'd had it on an iLok so I could use Max or Pluggo on someone ELSE'S machine, if only for a moment.

Best to you.

Thanks Rick. I just re-installed Pluggo and I remembered seeing
"3.6.1" dancing across the screen. Still waiting for the challenge
code response from Cycling74, but the plug-ins should work even in
demo mode - you just have to stand that beep sound now and then.

BTW, I saw Cycling74 will let you authorize Pluggo on an iLok. Has
anyone a good experience with that? I'm asking because I have an
iLok, that I mainly use for Pro Tools oriented products, but if it
makes sense I guess I could put Pluggo on it as well. My spontaneous
reaction was to stay with the computer hardware based authorization
method just to not being forced to bring the iLok dongle when going
out to do live looping concerts. I still don't know how the (non-
iLok) challenge code/response code method handles a mac with Boot
Camp Windows XP? Does it count as "two licenses" even though it is
the same hardware? (I bet someone must have gone through this with
Cycling74?)
