ALC Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 1 hour ago, Doug Rintoul said: That may be the stated case but there seems to be a bug in the license detection. I purchased T-RackS 6 in January and four plugins that I had in T-RackS 5 were not recognized in T-RackS 6. They were Brickwall Limiter, Dyna MU, Linear Phase, and Quad Comp. I worked with support to try to resolve the issue but they were not able to help me get T-RackS 6 to recognize the T-RackS 5 licenses. I verified that these modules were shown as owned in Custom Shop, but did not show as owned in the module manager. I ended up asking for a refund for T-RackS 6 and purchased T-RackS 6 Pro which included the above plus a few more T-RackS 6 exclusive plugins. Yup, that’s exactly the issue I’m seeing with my TR5 plugins in TR6. Thanks for confirming that it’s not just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Steinschneider Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I have Total Studio Max 2 which includes most TR5 plugins up until that time. I only use them in my DAW, if I do the Humble Bundle the 19 licenses included in the standard release will be updated to the TR6 versions. It shouldn't affect my other TR5 plugins that came with Max 2 in this scenario - correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't affect my other TR5 plugins that came with Max 2 in this scenario - correct? I gave up trying to understand all this kind of stuff. But what I have seen myself is that T-Racks 5 FX show up in the Browser with TR5 as part of the name, but my T-Racks 6 MAX FX just have the name of the effect, such as seen here: As to whether or not the plug-ins themselves changed from the TS MAX 2 version, I defer to others. But so far as I can see (at least on my PC), the new ones did not remove the ability to select and use the TR5 versions. I think that's what you are asking about, but I defer to others who probably use them more than I do. Hope this helps.

ALC Posted Tuesday at 08:18 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:18 PM Given that a number T-RackS 6 modules remain locked for me, I requested and received a refund. Seeing the Total Studio 5 MAX release prompted me to do so. I'm planning to get the next release of Total Studio MAX (5.5?) when it gets released (assuming a similar price point). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurre Posted Tuesday at 10:12 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:12 PM I gave it a go with Miroslav Philharmonik 2. I was curious if the $1 tier really worked. If something went wrong, because of IK's bad reputation, it would be easy to forget a loss of $1. It worked. I now understand more of that bad reputation. It installed 3 apps. Product manager, authorization manager and custom shop. I only needed Product manager for installation and authorization. So...bloatware. Bad and partly missing installation instructions, took hours to find the right procedure and install. Then it had a missing dll and needed a workaround that was found with a search, no info together with the installed files. But i came out of it a bit positive. Because i found out that there's 5 authorizations allowed and it installed on my win 8.1. That's nice.🙂👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
