Allow Installation of Plugin Only

Not planned
0

Please allow us to install only the plugin without Systemwide every time.

Once measurement is done many of us have no use whatsoever for the Systemwide setup. So end up just disabling it.

Thanks.

Hi Phil,

Thanks for your post! Apologies for the belated attention to it from our side!

Thank you for this feedback, I have taken a note of it for our team! At the moment, when you're installing SoundID Reference, you will be required to install the systemwide app as well. This is so in order to activate your license through the systemwide app before you can use the other components (DAW plugin, Measure app). You can consider uninstalling the systemwide app once you've activated the software and continue using the plugin. When installing a new software update, the systemwide app will have to be installed again, though.

Hi guys, this request is 2 years old now...

I am still having to jump through hoops to disable systemwide after every update / installation. I actually wrote a script that does everything I need but it really should not be required:

net stop "Sonarworks Driver Interface"
sc config "Sonarworks Driver Interface" start= disabled
net stop "SonarworksAPOConfigService"
sc config "SonarworksAPOConfigService" start= disabled
net stop "SonarworksWDMDriverService"
sc config "SonarworksWDMDriverService" start= disabled
wmic path Win32_PnPEntity where "name='SoundID Reference Virtual Audio Device'" call disable
pause

Please can you consider this.

Hi Phil Pendlebury, thanks for your comment!

I'm afraid the SoundID Reference standalone cannot be unselected during the install process. The activation and the license verification process still occurs via the standalone app, thus it would be required to have it installed as well as otherwise, the plugins and the measure app (if being used) would not be able to validate the license status. 

Thanks for your input on this, we do appreciate it.
