Oh dear, I really have broken the KVR code, haven't I? I've an issue with something from one of the NICE companies. Silly old me! I should remember to stick to kicking Waves, NI, IK and Spectrasonics in future, which is perfectly fine and will give me lots of likes! Yum!
FWIW here's how that Soundtoys customer service thing could have gone...
I see your license is old from the version 1 days. You can upgrade to the latest v5 at a discount, please log in to see your price. Alternatively you can use a legacy installer INSERT LINK HERE - though please note this is unsupported by us.
Is that wildly unreasonable?
I've no clue what - if any - difference there is between v1 and v5 for me. I'm not asking for free upgrades in fact, I just want what I have to keep working as literally every one of my several hundred other plugins has done. Hell I would even pay a ten or twenty buck admin fee for it so the few legacy projects I have will open okay. It's just from my perspective $40 just to do this feels money-grabbing.
To all of you with the pitchforks out for me who has broken the KVR code - I do find it interesting that not a single person has attempted to explain why Waves are still evil here while lovely Soundtoys must be defended with guns. Waves have given away free full products every year for decades, and they keep access to installing them. Not so, seemingly, with Soundtoys, and yet I'm literally the Bad Guy. (Can I appropriate Billie Eilish for my new forum name?)
BTW, Ive looked and although I've kept a ton of old installers for many years, I don't seem to have kept this one. I know, what a complete imbecile I am!
