Got the following email from Audio Modeling of some changes to watch out for and prepare for in your live rig.
Dear Customer,
with the upcoming update of the Audio Modeling Software Center, we are introducing a significant improvement to our security and license management system.
This change has been implemented to increase performance, reliability, and overall security of the license management infrastructure for all Audio Modeling software products.
Nothing abnormal is happening.
If you carefully follow the instructions below, there is no reason for concern.
What will happen starting December 16
Starting December 16, when you launch the Audio Modeling Software Center, it will automatically update to the latest version.
After the update, you will be asked to log in again using your Audio Modeling account credentials.
This is a normal and expected login operation.
Your account connection has not been lost, and this does not indicate any malfunction.
What you can do after logging in
Once logged in, you have two options:
1. Update all your Audio Modeling products (recommended)
This is the option we strongly recommend, as it ensures full compatibility with the new license management system and provides the best overall experience.
2. Continue working without updating products
If you are currently in the middle of a project and prefer not to update your products right away, you may continue using them without updating.
In this case, you will need to log in individually inside each Audio Modeling product, using the same account credentials.
This behavior is not a bug or a malfunction, but a direct consequence of the updated license system.
