Are there any differences between the Trial and Full products?

There are absolutely NO differences - they are exactly the same piece of software. When you activate a trial, you get the complete product for 14 days to try and test as you please. After the demo period ends, you will be required to purchase a full license to use the product.

Are there demo or free trials for MixWave libraries?

Due to limitations outside of our control, we cannot offer free trials for MixWave Kontakt libraries.

When does the plugin free trial start?

Once the plugin has been downloaded and installed, the free trial will only start as soon as you activate the trial license in your iLok account.

Can I get a trial extension?

If your initial plugin trial period has expired, please contact us to request a trial extension.

Can I cancel my free trial?

Once a free trial has started by activating the license, it cannot be paused or canceled. However, you can deactivate the trial license in iLok License Manager and uninstall the plugin if you no longer wish to use it. The trial license will expire automatically when the trial period ends.
