Honestly, I love this instrument. However, the copy protection system is really restrictive:

As I understand it, it can only be installed on a single machine. That is very rare; most developers allow installation on multiple machines, and for good reason. It is common to have at least one computer for music production and a second one for live performance (a laptop, for instance). Most developers seem to allow three simultaneous activations.
Furthermore, the 7-day offline limit is a real hassle. For example, my audio computers are offline most of the time; to use CHOPGRID, I would have to go online just to run the instrument. It also creates a significant additional hurdle for live performance use.

It really is an incredible instrument, but all these excessive anti-piracy measures just penalize the user who actually buys a license. Even though I can clearly see how I would use this great tool, I won't buy it given all these constraints.

This is, of course, just the opinion of a potential buyer, but I felt it was important to share it with the developer.
