With Surreal Machines plugin, the DEMOs are actually separate plugin downloads.
You can try out any Surreal Machines plugin before purchasing by downloading this separate file (using the “Demo” button on the website) and going through the purchase procedure which will default to €0.
This way the demo download link will always be available to you via your Surreal Machines account.
The demo plugins have the following restrictions:
– If you recall a non-factory preset or if you reload in your DAW (including saving, closing then reopening a session), audio will be bypassed.
– If you automate the plugin it will not respond (the GUI will update, but the audio engine will not respond).
Once you decide to purchase, you must revisit the Surreal Machines website and go through the purchase procedure to gain access to full versions of the plugins. You could delete the demo plugins from your computer before installing the full versions, although as they are separate files the full installers will overwrite any demo preferences.
