Switched computers, now BPM wont play BPM samples

Post by chlorinedream »

Hi - I tried loading up BPM on a new Mac with a valid license on the iLok and the BPM soundfiles in the appropriate location in the Library directory and get the following error:

"BPM soundbank is required but currently missing or no valid authorization could be found. Please check your setup".

As far as I can see everything is setup properly. The Beatbox Anthology samples load fine. Any ideas?

Maybe it's time to move on from BPM. What are people using nowadays?

Not nearly enough information.

What OS was the old Mac? How did you move the samples over?

Motu support quickly diagnosed the issue. For some reason I had an older version of one of the BPM soundbanks installed. Replaced with the most current one and it works fine.
