He asked for the serial nr and then I haven´t heard anything back from him. I got edgy because the zarg stuff is what made me buy it in the first place. That card had an expensive pricetag for potentially not getting what you thought you bought.kylie wrote:the point is that there isn't even a name in the key (or we're declaring the hw serial of the board its nameMr Arkadin wrote:If you have the key files as stated in the opening thread why are you trying to transfer them? If you have the keys it doesn't matter whose name it's in it does it?). I assume that several plugins of zarg are not downloadable at SC, so he would have to get it from john.
if I were him (that is: casar) I'd just contact john, tell him that you have the card with the hw serial xyz, attach the corresponding license strings as a proof that the plugins are registered to that card (I had to do so for my pro one crossgrade) and ask him for sending the installkits. I don't really doubt that it works.
again, if the keys do work, it's fine, but if not, it's the sellers fault and not john's. but if the plugins were transferred off the card before it was sold to casar it's surely trackable. on the other hand, I don't believe that this is the case.

Having lots of trouble with the card plugins at the moment though, I hope to sort it out.
S.O.S
sorry, my comment above lacked some precision, as I referred to a (isolated) software device only.
For example if you wanted to sell me those Zarg Plugins.
in that case the devices have to be 'erased' from your card and need a new code for my card, which is a process that only a person with access to a special licensing machine at SonicCore can do - in other words the 'keymaster' aka Ralf
if someone sells a card, then it's just an entry in the customer database at SonicCore and Zarg Music, as someone already mentioned.
According to your quoting (which is correct imho) the words indeed say that the license becomes a void item after sales, but that certainly wasn't the purpose of the orginal statement.
John Bowen is the most reliable and friendly business partner you can imagine, seriously.
the protection scheme of the Scope system is a bit confusing when you first get in contact with it - it's fairly unique and afaik it's never been cr**ked during it's 10 years or so of existence.
But in the end it's much more userfriendly than online challenge-response systems that beep at any new item you plug into your PC box...
cheers, Tom

the protection scheme isn't the problem here. he's got a key for a room to unlock, but the room is missingastroman wrote:the protection scheme of the Scope system is a bit confusing when you first get in contact with it - it's fairly unique and afaik it's never been cr**ked during it's 10 years or so of existence.

I'm sorry, but my karma just ran over your dogma.
I'm sorry, but my karma just ran over your dogma.
of course it's not the problem, but it's the origin from which all proceedings start.
Long time users are familiar with board serial numbers, key generation, Ralf, that it takes time, there are transfer fees and all that stuff...
Someone new may just ask himself 'wtf is going on here ?'
and it's important that the procedure is actually working and much less annoying than most stuff in this context.
