Tracktion Software

bpblog · Post by **bpblog** » Sat May 09, 2015 4:24 pm

Hi Everyone! I've just noticed (since Beat Magazine posted the news on their FB page) that there's a free version of Tracktion 4 available. That's really awesome!

I have a few questions:

1) Is it available as freeware for everyone interested?
2) When was it released as a free download?
3) Are there any limitations to the free version?

Thank you!

1) Yes
2) Now
3) None - except it's an older version so lacks a lot of the features T6 has

I'm trying to activate Tracktion 4 Free on my computer but I can't figure out how to add the free license to my user account. Is there any solution to this?

This is pretty cool...

Just a note for people with later versions... I often use T4 to scan
in plugins that refuse to scan in with later versions... T4 is not
as picky as T5-6

Like waldorf attack for instance...

So its often handy...

Is there an upgrade from 6 to 6+ ? I'd happily pay $30 for a + package. The only + option I am offered is $70

OK so now it gets complicated

I currently have
Tracktion Software - v2
Tracktion Software - v4
Tracktion Software - v4 Upgrade
Tracktion Software - v5 Upgrade
Tracktion Software - v5 + v6 Combo Upgrade
Tracktion Software - v5 + v6 Combo Linux

Celemony - Melodyne Essential
code: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The Linux licence I presume is now dead as it is now charged and included with my main v6 licence.

I don't really know what I've got as my last upgrade could have applied to my v5 licence or the spare v4 courtesy of Behringer. If it was the v4 then I have two v5 licences but seem to be short of a Melodyne licence. Is this fully thought through?

I have 5 computers but T is registered only on 2.

... on a separate matter a friend (at my prompting) redeemed a T4 Behringer licence on Thursday. Is this just bad luck?

He intends to upgrade, but It's no longer clear from the emails or website if the Melodyne licence (originally with t5) comes with the free bundled licence, T6 or only T6+.

It's just T6 plus the Final Mix and Micro Synth Pack

ah, i see.

but i don't see this anywhere to upgrade to (i already have a t5/t6 combo upgrade).
just searched the website and marketplace.
is this some special offer for upgraders from earlier versions?

disregard my question above, just found it!

edit:
now i received the email with the new "lineup". great move with the free t4! will probably get some more users "onboard".

Tracktion had another free version some (long) time ago. I think it was T2 or T3.
