That's a good point. I will take a look and see if the drop-down menus work for me or not and let you know here.I'm not anti iLok, but by far my favorite method is simple serial numbers for sure. iLok is the easiest activation with a new computer with no comparison though.It may have been a simple issue of a reboot and/or problem with ILOK, but unsure ATM. I'll look more into it once I find the time. This is the first and last time I use ILOK, incidentally. It was already installed for NFA's Generate and I seem to recall Loom 2 asking for it as well.
If a company can't monetize their products without beating people over the head, they should choose another avenue and/or maybe FLOSS their products if they insist on making them.
About ILOK and/or whatnot; remember this if nothing else: Technology is supposed to work for people, rather than the other way around. Society doesn't owe you a living, via your product.
Mostly I would be surprised if the drop down menus work for you, the only way it works here is in Bitwig, because it sandboxes the VSTi version into it's own native process and doesn't translate it to native like the AU version in other dAWs does. so it doesn't suffer that way.
EDIT: Ok, I have it open right now... When I'm in 'Edit Mode' and with 'Default' preset setting and click on the first module on the left (on the Odd/Even words at its top), I do get a drop down that includes options like 'Basic Modules', 'Filtering Modules' and 'Effect Modules', among others. When I hover over them, I get other popups for their sub-options.
Is that what you're talking about with regard to drop down menus? If so, they work for me. At least those ones in particular. If there are others that don't work, I'll let you know.
EDIT 2: In Edit Mode (still Default preset), under Partials, I get a dropdown of partial counts but selecting another number doesn't work.
Unsure if it's because I have to do something first, but it is a concern. I have a Windows box with Loom 2 on it as well that I'll look into in an hour or so.
