Licensing
Demo, Activation & Deactivation
SMT uses an online activation system. A license allows activation on up to three machines simultaneously.
Demo Period
SMT includes a 14-day free trial with full functionality. The trial starts automatically on first launch — no account or credit card required.
During the trial, the key icon in the toolbar is amber and the title bar shows how many days remain. All features work normally.
When the trial expires, MIDI processing is disabled.
Purchasing
Purchase SMT at schepsworx.net/smt. After payment, a license key is sent to the email address used at checkout. Keep this email — it is your proof of purchase.
Activating
Click the key icon in the top-right of the SMT toolbar.
Enter your license key in the field. You can type it or paste it.
Click Activate. SMT contacts the activation server to verify your license.
The key icon turns green. SMT is now fully licensed on this machine.
Activation requires an internet connection. Once activated, SMT can work offline for up to 30 days before requiring a connection to refresh the license.
Deactivating
To move a license to a different machine, deactivate on the current machine first.
Click the key icon in the toolbar.
Click Deactivate. You will be asked to confirm.
The activation slot is freed immediately. You can now activate on another machine.
Activation Limit
Each license allows three simultaneous activations. If you reach the limit and cannot deactivate an old machine (for example, if the machine was lost or rebuilt), contact us at info@schepsworx.net and we will reset an activation for you.
Offline Use
After activation, SMT does not require a constant internet connection. It periodically contacts the activation server in the background to refresh its license token. If you are offline, your license remains valid for 30 days from the last successful refresh.
