Weird. I downloaded it yesterday, and, the key files are there.

I compassionate about 180 MB of your limited download volume though. :hihi:

Did you take a look in the right folders though? This is the path: x64 -> VST2 -> ToneBoosters -> BusTools_v3 or TrackEssentials_v3
No Keyfiles, only dlls. We have to save every penny we can in our financial situation and I am on 40 hour a week jobsearch to justify my benefits while M is addicted to videos so even 180MB is tough going.

That's understandable from a business/IP perspective, sure a lot of potential customers would 'make do' with the v3 versions instead of buying the new ones (if they existed).

So where are you uploading the licenses to?

(joke, don't ban me... :))

PM me for the PirateBay link and Paypal details.

Just kidding. ;)

Fun thing, I had them properly registered anyway because I bought them in the past :)

Any of this relevant for macPOS? I downloaded the installers but they open in demo mode.

Same here. I downloaded them yesterday and just installed them. They're all asking for license keys but the keys are not included in the download ... this is v1.5.5 on Windows :shrug:

What are you missing about the words "portable version" and "they fixed the files shortly after the fact"?

You should maybe edit your original post, including the subject line.
Surely there must be consensus by now...

Yes, I can confirm. I downloaded the Windows portable zip yesterday, and yes indeed, keys were in there. I just downloaded again and they're gone. So it was mistake. I doubt I'll install them anyway.

Fair enough... even though just reading the first posts everything is clear...

It'd be nice if everyone carefully read enough to be fully informed before responding, but in 18 years I haven't seen it happen.
Surely there must be consensus by now...

I have most of the V3 plugins that I paid for :)

The only one I still use is DeEsser 3....

I like Evoke and Sibilance,but the latency is too high...

The V4 plugins are so much better in so many ways :tu:
No auto tune...

Ferox and reelbus 3 are still awesome and you won't get their signature sound in reelbus 4 , even when ferox sat mode is selected in reelbus 4 .
It's all about that feedback dial in ferox( and time set to zero ms ),it afds so much oomph :) .

None of that info had been posted when I downloaded the installer yesterday.
