LOR Upgrade

[Ralph Priest]

With Christmas just next week, I am pulling my hair out trying to get this show running. I added a third controller this year which crashed my system. LOR says I need to activate my "advanced hardware" to run three or more controllers. I must admit-I'm not sure what they mean by that. However, per their instructions I tried to do this by opening the Sequence editor, but It will not open! Any thoughts?

By "advanced hardware", they probably meant "Advanced license".

Your license level controls a bunch of different features that the software provides; among these is the number of controllers that the software will control. Specifically:

• Demo: zero controllers
• Basic: two controllers
• Basic Plus: four controllers
• Standard: eight controllers
• Advanced: an unlimited number of controllers

So I don't think you need an Advanced license to start using a third controller; you'll need anything above a Basic license. Please note that if you previously purchased LOR 1 software, a free Advanced license was automatically created for you; if so, you can retrieve it from here:
