HELP AND LICENCES

Answers before you start.

Downloads, licences, local networking and compatibility: the essential points for using SiLeMI/O with confidence.

Can I use the software without buying a licence?

StageFlow is free. StageDesk, StageMark and StageMon remain usable without a purchase: after 30 days, a support reminder appears at startup, and a licence remains optional. Dante Config Editor offers a full 30-day trial, followed by a permanent licence required to continue using it. Larsen Lupin also offers a 30-day trial, followed by a licence required for audio processing.

Do I need a code or online activation to try the software?

StageFlow is free, with no code or activation. In recent versions of StageDesk, StageMark and StageMon, the “Continue” or “Continue with…” button starts the local trial, with no purchase, code or online activation required. “Activate code” is for people who already have a purchased or gifted permanent licence code; initial activation of supported new codes requires a connection. On Mac, StageDesk does not support new permanent activation. Dante Config Editor supports V2 codes from version 2027.2.10 on macOS 15 or later; activation and deactivation require a connection, then use can continue offline. In Dante Config Editor and StageMark, older codes that work offline remain recognised. Dante Config Editor 2027.3 offers a full 30-day trial from its first launch, with no code required, including for users of the previous free version. A €49 permanent licence is then required to continue using it; previously purchased or gifted licences remain valid. Larsen Lupin follows a different process: first online activation starts a full 30-day trial; the remaining time appears in the English-language Licence panel. After the trial, a perpetual licence is required for audio processing. For an older version or a different screen, contact me with the software name, version, operating system and a screenshot of what you see.

How does Dante Config Editor 2027.3 work?

On Windows, prepare an XML file offline, work with Dante devices detected on the local network, or combine both in one grid. Missing devices remain visible in grey; patches between available devices apply directly. Comparison and synchronisation start only on request. On Mac, offline XML preparation is available, but the integrated network grid and mixed mode are not included. The full 30-day trial starts on first launch of 2027.3. A €49 permanent licence is then required; purchase, activation and saving the draft remain available after the trial.

Is Larsen Lupin included in the StageFlow bundle?

No. Larsen Lupin is a separate offer, available as a plug-in or standalone with one €49 perpetual licence per computer. The suite bundle remains €99 with its three licences and free StageFlow.

Must I pay to try Larsen?

No. First online activation starts a full 30-day trial. The remaining time is shown in the English-language Licence panel. When the trial expires, the original sound passes through without processing; a €49 perpetual licence is needed to continue audio processing.

What does a licence include?

Each licence is perpetual. StageFlow suite software includes three activations by default; the Larsen Lupin licence covers one computer at a time, in plug-in and standalone modes. Initial activation of supported new codes requires a connection; afterwards the software works offline. On Mac, StageDesk does not support new permanent activation. Dante Config Editor supports V2 codes from version 2027.2.10 on macOS 15 or later; activation and deactivation require a connection. Older codes that work offline remain recognised in Dante Config Editor and StageMark. Updates remain compatible with the licence. For Larsen Lupin, a full system reinstall can erase the protected key: contact support to recover access.

Can I move to another computer?

Yes. The licence panel shows used and authorised installations and provides a “Deactivate this computer” button, so you can free an activation before moving to another machine.

How do I buy the complete bundle?

Add the bundle in the store and open Stripe checkout. It combines the three paid licences — StageDesk, StageMark and StageMon — for €99 incl. tax instead of €147 separately, a saving of €48. StageFlow is free, available separately and requires no code.

Is StageFlow paid?

No. StageFlow is currently free. It acts as the master session and orchestrator when several software need to share one patch and its changes.

Does all software need to be on one computer?

No. Software can run independently or be installed on several computers on the same local network. StageFlow can distribute the project and source-label change alerts. Other patch fields do not trigger these alerts. The remote portal also opens from a phone or tablet connected to that network.

Where are downloads and guides?

Each Software page lists its installer, public Release page and available resources: quick start, full manual, suite guide or Excel template depending on the product. Downloads stay linked to the public GitHub releases.

How can I request support or an improvement?

Write through the Contact page. Include the context, software, version and, if possible, the steps to reproduce the issue. Support, compatibility and feature requests are welcome.

Which systems are supported?

Detailed compatibility is shown on each Software page. The download centre lists the Windows and macOS installers actually available for each software. Install only the files matching your system and check the linked Release for the exact version.
