This category targets sound designers and companies looking to design and sell interactive sample libraries.

To unlock these features, you’ll need the “Enable Distribution Use” serial key.

Email [email protected] to request a distribution use key.

Enter the serial key in the Serial Keys section located in the Preferences editor panel.  

Once the key is entered, users can author FPKs with the following license types, available in the Scene inspector panel:

1. For Personal Use: Enables the SoundMaker Editor to author FPKs for non-commercial, personal projects. These FPKs can be loaded by all players.

2. For Linear Use: Enables the “Author FPK” button, allowing the export of FPKs for distribution and sale in linear projects.

3. For Interactive Use: Enables the “Author FPK” button, allowing the export of FPKs for distribution and sale in interactive projects.

For both  Linear  and  Interactive  license types, the  “Export Serial Keys”  button is enabled.

This allows setting the number of serial keys to generate for the FPK.

Designers intending to create interactive sample libraries for commercial projects need to purchase the  “Enable Internal Linear Use”  serial key from our website.

Enter the serial key in the Serial Keys section located in the Preferences panel.

For Internal Linear Use: Once the serial key is present, users can author FPKs for use in commercial projects with the VST Player.

Developers aiming to use SoundMaker Editor and Players to design and implement interactive audio libraries for their games need the  “Enable Internal Interactive Use”  serial key provided by Tazman-Audio.

There are three levels of licenses based on the game budget:

• Level A
• Level B
• Level C

Once a key is purchased, enter it in the Serial Keys section located in the Preferences panel.

For Internal Interactive Use: Once the serial key is present, developers can author FPKs ready for use in their games.

When browsing and attempting to load an FPK into the VST Player, the license type and serial key section will be visible in the info section if a serial key is already present. If not then the FPK Serial Key box will be blank

Users can copy/paste their purchased serial key for the FPK.

• Valid Key: If the serial key is valid, the FPK will load, and the key will be stored and shown in the Info view.

• Invalid Key: If the key is invalid or absent, a popup dialog will prompt the user to enter the serial key again.

• Interactive-authored FPKs can be loaded into the VST player.
• Internal FPKs require entering the internal serial key only once. Subsequent FPKs will automatically use the stored internal serial key.

For projects loading internal interactive FPKs, enter the internal serial key in the FabricPlayerSettings  scriptable object located in the Assets/SoundMaker  folder.

Users can then browse and load FPKs with the “For Interactive Use” license type. The license type will be displayed in the SoundMaker player panel.

If the FPK is authorized “For Internal Linear Use,” a popup message will appear, and the FPK will fail to load. 

Select the FabricPlayerSettings  scriptable object to view FPK details, including license types and keys.
