SONROSAS 45 Posted May 3 I hate that you can't register the product in antares portal, if you don't have codemeter .. , I would like to just leave the license in the account and that's it, so I only see this possible if you do it on a secondary computer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Larry Shelby 25,999 Posted May 6 (edited) Codemeter runs in the System Tray on Windows, and it is pretty unintrusive. I don't mind it...but I don't mind iLok either. Everyone has "their quirks" Edited May 6 by cclarry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone has "their quirks" I must be getting old, that’s why I complain about anyone’s complaints, especially when I see no big problem. For example, I never had any problems with Codemeter, but you should have seen countless pages of moaning on another forum when the synth Avenger got Codemeter has a copy protection after the synth and all their expansions became pirated. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're all getting old! 😆 I could have used the same introduction as you. 😄 These are my problems: I am still one of these guys that have 2 computers offline. With the new Antares authorization this is a problem, even if Codemeter generally would support offline activation, Antares seems not to support it with their Antares Central sh..! I know how to use iLok. I have even 2 Antares plugins using iLok and that runs perfect also for offline activation (on iLok hardware)! It is really a hassle when it is now required to install and understand Codemeter in addition, only for 1 Antares plugin! Codemeter requires resources (100 MB space on my precious C-drive SSD and process runtime resources for 1 plugin only) I tried to install and authorize Duo, but now it seems it's all been invain! I guess this plugin will get on my dungheap of unusable plugins! 😆 It's a pity that more and more plugin providers imply this forever online doctrine! But as always: YMMV ! 😉 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
