User Reviews

If you are going to a make a demo version of the app it should be fully featured save for preventing preset saving and even AUV3 use which are acceptable trial restrictions. But this game of siphoning off features here and there makes it unattractive and prevents the user from knowing the plugin’s usefullness. I was going to try it out to see if I might want to buy it, but when I discovered I could not even connect my midi controller without the pro version I gave up. You would do well to offer this as a paid app from the start or make a more limited fully functional free version (say with 8 lanes instead of 16) rather than playing this feature withholding game.
