Free to Studio
Posted by Dan Davis on May 24, 2017 at 2:46 pmI’m starting with a client very soon who has (the watermarked) 12.5 free version . I have the paid version with dongle.
Is it the case that I can just take my dongle along and it will open up the features I will need not least noise reduction.
Or will I have to re download the paid version on their system?Thanks for any help.

Yes. That is my understanding.

May 24, 2017 at 7:16 pmThanks for getting back to me on this. That’s a shame as I get the impression they don’t want freelancers tinkering with their set-up.
Thanks again.

What do you mean by “watermarked”? There’s no such thing. The free version is fully functional up to UHD. It misses stereo3D and noise reduction features, but that’s pretty much it.

Ah, I see. So far I’ve never used any of these on the free version. I had just assumed they weren’t included.
