PLUGIN DELIVERY: Latest & Greatest?
-
I've been using Pulse since 2019, and I'm the guy who worked with them on native HISE support. Recently the ownership changed, and even though we - people who were using Pulse - were told that the terms of operation are going to stay unchanged, they informed me that they'll actually change the terms for me anyway. It was 10th of March or so, and they said something like "hey, we're changing the terms for you, and they'll affect your pricing from March 1st". Not a very respectful way to do business, in my opinion.
Also, keep in mind that all Pulse does is it gets the multi-zip archives from the server and unpacks them. There's no license management or anything like that.
Anyway - I'm using a custom installer now I built with HISE. You can pretty much replicate all Pulse does with this @d-healey (thank you!) tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqGsqJoBxiQ

@Lindon That sounds like an awesome code!
All great advice.

and Im always open to license requests by the way..)
I dont think I can make use of this code specifically. Do you have other types of codes that you license?

Install setup will likely be your biggest single support call topic...get it as bullet proof as you can
Agreed! Thanks for the great advice! I'll look into everything you mentioned including all the different platforms you mentioned.
Thank You!

@tomekslesicki Wow. Thats pretty cool that you made that, and sad that they treated you like that. Thanks for the insight. Crucial.

Well I work with the Pulse guys(as Sample Logic) on a pretty weekly basis and this isnt my experience at all, they seem very professional and considerate. In fact they use my HISE based approach in PULSE for their own products because the existing HISE solution wasnt something they felt comfortable using, no idea why.

Well there's a range of things, and not trying to get too salesy here, this is the list:
- The download/Install system
- The Authorisation system (RSA based and includes the key generator)
- the tag based browser system(s)
- the slot-based multi-fx system
- the chord player system
- the arp pattern builder
HISE Development for hire.

@tomekslesicki my 2 cents. Shopify custom + your own license server. I don’t think is a good idea to give anyone the core of your business.
For promotion. All the aforementioned but most important thing from my little experience is to create “wow” software. It promotes itself. Resellers come to you. And press. And sales.

@Lindon Sick. Thank you for sharing. I'll keep this in mind for when the time comes.

@hisefilo This definitely resonates with me to the core. I'd rather keep it all in house as much as possible.

- your own license server
How do you make you're own server and what purpose does this serve in the process?
-
@Chazrox well I didn’t make it. Just hired a developer.
You need to make calls from your plugins to an endpoint on your server to validate licenses. -
@hisefilo cool. I'll do some reading. Might be back. Thank You!
