Activate and manage your license
Each paid purchase is a perpetual license for 2 computers, for personal use. BeatBridge, SIDECHAIN and BeatBridge AB are licensed separately. CLIPER and ANALYZER are free, with no plugin activation required and need no paid purchase.
BeatBridge AB uses the same signed license service as BeatBridge and SIDECHAIN. Buy only through the official AB page. Open Settings → License or INFO → License, paste the key from the AB purchase email and press Activate. AB covers 2 computers and caches purchased access for up to 30 days offline.
Activate
Already activated? Manage your license online to see your two computers.
- Open BeatBridge or the SIDECHAIN information panel, then choose License.
- Click License.
- Paste the key from your purchase email.
- Click Activate. The app confirms the license is active.
Each product needs its own key. A BeatBridge key does not unlock SIDECHAIN, and vice versa.
2 computers — personal use
You can activate the same license on two Macs that you personally use. Sharing a key outside your own use is not allowed. If both slots are occupied, free one before activating a third Mac.
Move to a new Mac
Open Manage your license, enter your key and deactivate the old Mac. If the page cannot help, email support@beatbridge.net with:
- the email used at checkout;
- the product — BeatBridge or SIDECHAIN;
- the name or description of the old Mac you no longer use.
We will release the old activation so you can activate the new Mac. Do not send your license key in a public message.
Transfer the whole licence
To sell or give the licence to another person, see License transfer and resale. A single activation slot cannot be transferred.
Lost key or receipt
Email support@beatbridge.net from the address used at checkout. We can resend the product-specific key.
Offline use
Activate once online. For current paid builds, purchased access works offline for up to 30 days after a successful activation or renewal. When connected, renewal runs in the background. Connect before the deadline to keep using the paid features. Your perpetual license does not expire; the signed access receipt needs periodic renewal. No iLok or USB dongle is required.
Trial
Paid products offer a full-featured 7-day trial. No card is required. When the trial ends, activate a purchased key; your projects and settings remain.
