I have bought PA plugins using 2 different accounts. Consequently, I can never use all plugins concomitantly. When I use account a to activate the plugins associated with that account, all plugins from account b get deactivated automatically. PA service just told me they no longer merge accounts but that I can transfer my licenses. 2 problems: license transfer does not work in my account (???) and even if it did, I would have to pay 20USD to transfer my own bought licenses to myself. Crazy... Running out of ideas. Anyone has any ideas how to overcome the dilemma? Many thanks! (Win 11 PC, FL Studio)

 

I can offer you an easy solution, just use PA plugins from sister site.

 

There's an old trick to run cracked PA plugins and legit at the same time, could work with two legit accounts. You'll need to generate the licence for one account on one drive, and the other license for the seccond acount on a USB flash memory.

Never tried it with two legit accounts, but it's worth the shot.

 

You can also use your voucher-codes to pay the license transfer. If you own some of their plugin you should receive those quite regularly via email.

 

thanks, tried that. with win 11 you have to store vst3 plugins in specified directories on your c drive....FL studio will not load VST3s from a USB drive even if you point it there ti scan for plugins...

 

sorry, I am new here...what is the sister site?

 

Plug-in a flash drive, install at default location and proced to activation. The plugin activation windows allows you to select in which drive the license file will be stored. So, activate one account in the default drive and the second one in the flash drive (keep it there to use both accounts togheter).

 

Having the same problem.

 

Will try this, thanks.

 

you are geniuses! thanks a lot. finally figured this out: an external SSD does not work but a simple flash drive does. One more thing: I could not activate it with the offline function and a freshly downloaded license file. But the online activation worked. I now have all my PA plugins open at the same time in my DAW - hallelujah! thanks again.

 

SHould be easily do-able using PA Manager. You can save licenses to different devices, e.g. one user onto local machine, multiple other users to multiple other USBs etc. This is how I previously had my legit PA licenses and R2R license set up (and still do actually), though planning to installed the recently available MEGA bundle to reelace these soon.

EDIT: Just noticed that you've solved it using this method

 

Fairly confident that that should work. It's ridiculous enough that you can run legit plugins together with cracked plugins on a dongle.
I literally labeled mine "iLok for the poor"

 

Site , where you can download "big bundle gift from R2R legends" (PA All Plugins Bundle)

Hello everyone! is it possible to run cracks + legit plugins from 2 differents pa accounts? i run at the moment cracks along with legit from one account but i also have a 2nd account that i used in my old studio..

 

You can run legit and cracked if you store the licence for one on an internal HD and the other one on an external USB drive, but I don't know in which way two different accounts matter or if you even could run two accounts at the same time on the same machine. But legit and cracked can live side by side.

 

This works. This way you can use two avid vouchers on different accounts at the same time. 20 Bucks for a transfer that isnt even ilok is too much imo
