For years I have been looking for the perfect spacey atmospheric otherworldly synth.

Found it :party: :party:

Nemesis 2 didn't have a price upgrade, it was free. If Tone2 wants to charge an upgrade for it's "big dog" then I don't have a problem with that. Dune 2 to Dune 3 has an upgrade price and that doesn't bother me- It gives something to look forward to and I waited like a year to upgrade, happily. It's not too expensive to upgrade, it just means you don't want to pay it. The fact that Tone2 gives discount is nice to begin with.

I have reproduced this from my Icarus2 manual, it might be of relevance to your requirements.
The license included with this product is a single user license for an installation on a single
computer. Please contact our support team if you need additional licenses.
BTW, In my experience TONE2 support has been excellent, they always respond quickly to my messages without exception.

That's not true and never has been true. The writer of the manual did make a mistake.

Tone2 license policy:

- All licenses are cross platform (PC/MAC).
- One license is registered to a single user
- You can install the software on several computers, which are owned and operated by you
- You are not allowed to share your license with other people

I just got Icarus..... should I keep the Icarus2.t2k file safe?

I only use it on one PC but a reinstall will be inevitable at some point.

I was sure of it, but it was still an excellent and opportune clarification, thank you Markus.
btw, you could gift your manual writer with a little bit of our Venezuelan coffee :wheee:

Who made all the soundpacks/patches you can buy off the Tone2 site? Was it the same people who did the factory patches, or different? There are albums attached to them...

I thought BT was Brian Transeau of Flaming June. That's just false advertising :hihi:
