Hi, I have the license for this R2R VST and it works fine until the 30-minute mark, when the skin color turns paler and the knobs stop moving. I’ve blocked the d16 website, but it still switches to demo mode after that time; I hope you can help me.

 

R2R usually advise you to delete prior versions you may have installed. Use Revo Uninstaller if you think you are possibly leaving remnants from old installations. You need their System tools installed for anything new they release. These seem to get DMCA removed from sister site, but on another site over 300+ have downloaded these plugins and not a single user has reported a timebomb like you are having happen. They definitely would if there was an actual issue with them.

If you remove and reinstall them properly, they clearly will work correctly. There is nothing wrong with their release of them.

 

Ok, Thanks i go to Uninstall

 

not sure if its issue with plugin its self or some weird protection thing but punchbox2 from the recent r2r total bundle sometimes goes silent and until when i click the show plugin icon and the sound returns using win11 live 12 had it happen a couple of times on different projects both times i noticed it happen after maybe half an hour or 40 min something like that

edit i found an old punchbox license hidden in a folder this is probably reason for time bomb in my case time to reauthorize

A new version of R2R system just got released a couple of days ago. Make certain that you have applied the update if you haven't already.

 

Windows ? MacOS X ?
Phoscyon plugin version ?

Be sure you're using installer provided by R2R (never install plugin downloaded from official d16 website!), because unpatched plugin may cause it to revert to "demo/trial" after minutes (timebomb).
