Yep Pace/Ilok is now better than it use to be but it can, and has, caused issues in Win 10 for some folks, myself included. On my Win 10 boot I had to set services to delay start of Pace - minor tweak but took weeks to find that solution (now it's a well known-known on the web)- but a general user should NEVER have to muck with OS services.

I'm a geek and hack the registry, services, and policies all the time - so no biggie to me but I never recommended to others.

Yep I actually like AIR Xpand!2, Structure, DB33 and Velvet 2. But If I didn't have Pace/iLok (soft key only no dongles) already installed I would probably have skipped right over them.


unrelated if you like VA (analog) synths you really need to look at Synthmaster and Synthmaster One by KV331 Audio
