What is meant by “Single-User?” A single-user is defined as one person. The license cannot be owned by a company, corporation, organization, band, partnership, studio, etc. On how many computers can I install my Sonic Extensions? You are allowed to install and authorize them on any systems that have your Omnisphere license. Please keep in mind that the license is for a single-user only, but multiple computers for that user are allowed. Are there any legal limitations to how I can use Sonic Extensions? Our standard license is designed for musical use. Legal limitations start to apply within non-musical applications. For example, you are not permitted to use them to make other sound sample-based products for distribution (unless you are using your own audio files or the DSP waveforms). However, you are able to use our instruments in all your musical applications without paying for any additional licenses. This includes the ability to distribute commercial and non-commercial music releases, song placements, music libraries, beats, stems, trackouts, cues, melody/chord packs, etc. Can I share my own Patches that I have made using Sonic Extensions Soundsources with other Omnisphere users? Yes, however the other users will need to have the appropriate Sonic Extensions purchased, installed, and authorized on their systems in order to open any patches made with Sonic Extensions Soundsources. Licensing FAQs (continued) Do I need a special license to use Sonic Extensions in music used on a commercial project? No. The lifetime license fee to use the instruments and samples in any type of music is covered in the purchase price of the instrument. You can use it on as many of your own projects as you like and we hope that you make some hits with it! Do I have to credit Spectrasonics if I use Sonic Extensions on a project? No, it isn’t mandatory, but we certainly would appreciate it! Can I use Sonic Extensions in music library productions? Yes, this is fine. Some soundware companies restrict this kind of use (since music libraries sometimes cross over into the soundware business), but Spectrasonics allows music library use. In fact, we have many customers that use our products in music libraries. What if the Sonic Extensions elements in my music are exposed for a period of time? We aren’t concerned about normal music use. Of course our sounds may sometimes appear in exposed passages like intros and breaks within a song’s mix, but this is considered normal usage. Can I use Sonic Extensions in music for film trailers? Yes. Some companies restrict this kind of use, but Spectrasonics allows it.
