Authorizing DCAM: Synth Squad
Starting the authorization
The best way to authorize DCAM: Synth Squad is using the supplied standalone
applications. These are found in your
Applications folder (Mac) or in C:\Program Files\
FXpansion\<instrument> (Windows) – for example, C:\Program Files\FXpansion\Strobe.
See Appendix 1 of the operation manual PDF for more details of the standalone apps.
You only need to authorize one instrument to authorize the whole of DCAM: Synth Squad.
Run the Strobe, Amber, Cypher or Fusor standalone applications – when the instrument
detects it is not yet authorized, it runs License Manager automatically.
Introduction to License Manager
The License Manager application is used to manage licenses and authorizations for
DCAM: Synth Squad and other FXpansion software products, such as BFD2 and its
expansion packs.
The computer on which you want to use the product does NOT need to be on the internet.
To use our products, you need to authorize them to be run on your computer. You can
authorize your products in 3 ways:
• With License Manager and an internet connection on the same computer
• With License Manager and an internet connection on a different computer
• Using a web browser and a generated Authorization Request file, on the same or a
different computer
Note: Authorization files generated from an Authorization Request file are unique to a
single computer. An Authorization file is only valid on the computer that created the
Authorization Request file.
Enter your serial number
When License Manager runs, it may first prompt you for your product serial number. If it
does so, type in your serial number, hit ENTER and then click the OK button.
