CAN I USE THIS LIBRARY ON MORE THAN ONE COMPUTER?
Yes, this is a single user license, but our EULA allows for installation on up to two computers at a time.
IF I WANT TO INSTALL THIS LIBRARY ON A SECOND COMPUTER, DO I HAVE TO DOWNLOAD IT AGAIN?
No, you can simply copy the “Spitfire Audio - BBC Symphony Orchestra” folder over and use the Repair feature in the Spitfire Audio App to ensure the plugin can find all the content that it needs.
WHY IS BBCSO DISCOVER IN YOUR OWN PLUGIN, AND WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
Our own plugin is constantly evolving with new features and optimisations that aren’t possible in Kontakt. We can do more in depth sampling without any risk of crashing, and can also compress it to create perfect sample quality at smaller download sizes.
WHY WOULD I PAY IF I CAN GET IT FOR FREE?
At Spitfire Audio we support our musicians by paying them royalties on the products we sell, as well as any initial costs at all recordings, so any revenue made from this product will help fund the musicians who feature on the library.
HOW DOES YOUR DEDICATED PLUGIN WORK?
Our dedicated plugin libraries work as standalone instruments in your DAW, meaning that no serial number is provided and the authorisation process happens during your download. We provide an AU, VST2, VST3 and an AAX, so as long as your chosen DAW supports one of those plugin formats, you’re good to go.
I’VE INSTALLED DISCOVER AND IT’S NOT SHOWING UP IN MY DAW.
