I have a Focusrite 2i2 interface and already have Minimonsta, so I wonder if I can give this license to a friend (?)

So, how do I uninstall Minimonsta? Just checked it out briefly, but, decided that Monark is a hundred times better. There's no uninstaller. Can I just delete the installation folders?

Man, Gforce is so sloppy... the installer already appears like it was made in the last millenium.

Not sure if it applies to Minimonsta, but you can try running the installer again to hopefully get the uninstall option. That's their way for other plugins I own from them.

I tried that, but, there's no option to uninstall in the installer.

Well, looks like you're stuck with it...

Yep. Could be worse, but, I'm already pissed off because of something that happened before...

I'm probably just stupid, but how do I download it? The button shown in the novation guide is not there on the GeForce page. I downloaded the demo thinking I can just activate it within the plugin, but I find no such setting there either.

You have to register it in your Gforce account first, then you will see the download links there.

I have, but I don't see a link.

Interesting, just a minute ago it listed the Minimonsta under "My Instruments" tab as "registered", but without a link to the download. No it says no instruments are registered. But under orders, it still confirms that I have in fact ordered and registered Minimosta. Really odd..

I think you're asking the wrong person my friend.

I sort of have a problem with people giving these freebies away and certainly with selling them. I think it disrespects the generosity of the developers involved and disincentivizes them from giving out more freebies in the future. But....I'm sure others will disagree with me vociferously so do what your conscience says would be my advice.

Anyway I noticed that MiniMonsta on Windows hasn't been updated since 2014 and sadly it looks like it. The GUI is tiny and very hard to read at 192x1080 and I don't see a resize option.

It actually sounds pretty good if you don't already have other alternatives you prefer and if you take it on it's own merit so I'll keep it installed on this system for fun but I don't think it will make it on to my studio system because of the small GUI.

But once again thanks to Focusrite for their continued generosity.

Are you sure you clicked the "VIEW INSTRUMENT" button beside the "MINIMONSTA" lettering?

It just says "Currently you have no instruments. View our products to purchase items."

But there is a "View Order" button under my confirmed order of Minimonsta.
Reads "Order #179401 was placed on June 3, 2021 and status is Registered."

And also provided me with a User name and registration code.

Somehow the images don't show up, KVR doesn't support imgur, maybe?

Trying to re-register the code just tells me it's used already (which is correct).

Maybe a bug... ?
