Trial and Demo Modes"#"

A 30 day trial period will start when you first open the RX 8 Audio Editor or RX 8 plug-ins. After the 30 day trial period has expired, RX 8 will enter demo mode. To disable Trial or Demo mode, you must authorize the product with a valid serial number.

Trial Mode"#"

Trial mode begins when the RX Audio Editor is first opened or when an RX 8 plug-in is first instantiated in a DAW/NLE. The authorization wizard window will display the number of days remaining in your trial period.

Clicking on the “Continue” button will dismiss the Authorization window and allow you to continue evaluating RX 8 in trial mode.
