Authorizing the 'Xtreme FX' library...HOW?!

Post by ewillhelm »

Okay, so got MFive3 up and running here...almost. Trying to authorize this USB sound effects library, but it doesn't make sense, or perhaps I'm just being a dolt! A card is supplied with a MachFive ilok serial and a license code for the USB sounds. It says to visit ultimatesoundbank.com to register your copy using the code. But of course, you go there and there's no indication where to go, so I go to 'registration' where I choose this Xtreme FX thing and then it asks for a serial number. Of course, the license code doesn't work. Can't get beyond this. I'm SURE there's some other link or some other way to do this that I'm just not seeing yet. Anyone else get past me?

I've had that card for the UVI PLAYER (it's a great set of noise). I think you have to register and log into your acct to get access codes but I may be mistaken. It happens a lot... :)

I did. With the same type of trouble at first. On the list of their software, be sure you're picking the "Other" Xtreme FX item (somewhere higher up in the list), NOT the one at the bottom of the list, it's like a different package (but has a similar name).

When you pick the right one, it will want your iLok info from the sheet that came with mach five 3 instead of a traditional serial number...

Ah yes! That's the ticket! Thanks. It's always that dumb little thing right in front of you. Argh!
