As I said before—and I stand by it—I have no problem paying $15 (or the equivalent in my local currency) to reactivate the license; I understand the need for it, and it’s not an exorbitant amount. All I ask for is more frequent improvements—specifically, expanding the pilot range (I really appreciate that this is coming in a future update to bring it to 6). I realize that coding and programming take time, but I’d love to see more life breathed into Breakaway. It would also be cool to implement the processor’s phase scrambler—like Leif did for the Omnia 9s—or the “auto-pilot” feature. Again, I have no complaints; I just want interesting updates that keep customers happy. Since we’re paying for and using the software legally, I think it’s fair to ask for improvements—simple as that. And I’ll say it again: I’m not the type to complain about paying $15 for a new installation; that’s nothing. Just look at the cost of physical hardware or big-name systems, and you’ll see what I mean—haha.
I meant that in AGC I use less range; I don’t leave it as is because I don’t like to give it so much AGC.
Let me explain. Paying to install Breakaway on another PC isn’t a problem at all. Paying $15, which is equivalent to €12.98 in my currency, is a small price to pay, and I think it’s fine. I’m going to explain why I’m requesting the full range of the stereo pilot, although I don’t think it would be too much trouble to leave it with the full range and let each customer adjust it to their liking. Here in Spain, we modulate very aggressively; 90% of stations don’t operate at 75 MHz, we’re above that. What happens is that the more modulation, the higher the pilot’s frequency rises, and if I can’t lower it to 6.8 MHz, which is what’s recommended, or to keep it within the green area on the FM scope, of course, to reach that level, since Breakaway doesn’t allow me to lower the range, I have to lower the modulation. But what happens when I lower it? I sound quieter than the competition. Also, I use the LEIF preset, but I tweak certain settings. For example, I use a lot of AGC because it breaks the harmony of the… I monitor the song and enforce the audio levels when there are drops or stops in the song. I don’t want those levels to rise, and I also lower the AGC to avoid the pumping effect, and I also lower the bass for the same reason. Breakaway is amazing, but at least they should let the customer, since they have the complete Breakaway core and have paid a fortune, adjust it. I don’t think I’m asking for too much; I just want the pilot’s full range, and everyone can set it to their liking. With the analyzer as it is, I reach 9 injection, and according to the recommendation, pilot injection is between 6.8 and 7.0. Of course, it’s perfect modulating at 75MHz, but as I said, in Spain we’re very aggressive and go way over that. Otherwise, I don’t care if it’s incorporated or not, like the auto aeq. I’ve been testing it and I like that it automatically equalizes the sound. There are songs that sound very dark from the start, trapped in treble, and lack life. And of course, it’s not recommended to add more treble to a breakaway track, because otherwise, another song with more treble will just muddy the sound and it won’t sound clean.
Finally, Leif, thank you for the clarification. Knowing what would happen if Breakaway closes or any other circumstance arises puts customers at ease, at least me. And I have, I repeat, the entire Breakaway package, and legally, I want to be clear and reiterate, I have no problem paying for a new activation on another PC. I see it as sensible and reasonable. But without meaning to offend, I do see that Breakaway is falling behind in improvements, in adding new features, or in improving the sound. And believe me, I know what I’m talking about; the world of sound doesn’t stagnate, and there are always new and better technologies to achieve rich, rich sound. And I’ll say goodbye, as if not reiterating that I don’t think it’s too much to ask to leave the full range of the stereo pilot. You recommend one, fine, whoever wants to leave it at that level is fine, but it shouldn’t be an obligation, but rather a decision for the client to leave it at the level they want, and a module with an ESI card, Juli@ ex, and which also has a DAC.
Juli@ eX continues the long legacy of our legendary series of Juli@ reference audio interfaces – now with even higher quality featuring amazing Sabre ESS parts like the 32-bit 192kHz ES9822 PRO ADC (125dB DNR) and the 32-bit 192kHz ES908x DAC (120dB DNR) for only the very best quality audio.
Hey everyone, look, I don’t mind paying, but what if the company goes bankrupt tomorrow and I have to reinstall Breakaway One? Then what? Am I just stuck with it? I have it completely legally, so Leif should answer the customers. If, God forbid, you pass away tomorrow, or the website or support email stops working, what are those of us who bought it legally supposed to do? Are we just screwed? And another thing, since we demand at least that it be constantly updated with improvements, like other processors, please add the full range of the pilot once and for all. If I’m paying, I expect improvements and that the customer can choose the range for the stereo pilot. Add auto-eq, add the ability to duplicate audio channels if they are lost, like in the Omnia E9s, give life to the Breakaway One, and provide important updates more frequently. If you’re going to require payment to reactivate the license when installing it on a new PC, at least have the decency to add the features customers request. We BOUGHT it for this, and we don’t use pirated copies or anything like that. At least have the pleasure of pleasing your loyal customers who support you and use it LEGALLY.
yes , this posted in https://www.breakawaysoftware.com/
OK, we need more activity and updates with interesting things and customer requests; I hope there will be a major update sooner rather than later.
This update is very poor 🙁 we want improvements, and I want the full range of the FM pilot and interesting new features.
That’s right, Milky. Unless there’s a grammatical error, I have no idea where he got version 3.33.93 and nobody knows.
Does anyone know if there’s a new update coming?
Although it already is, we have to make Breakaway the most complete and the best audio processor on the market and I am very happy and with this next update more than ever. 🙂
Leif told me that in the next update the total range of the pilot will be added again so that each one can set it as necessary.
Please, I ask you, please, make a small update and add the pilot range from 0 to 9%. Here in Spain we modulate more than in the rest of Europe, not all, but the vast majority, and I need to lower the pilot more. I think that it doesn’t cost anything, and since I have paid for the software, what’s the point of adding the pilot range so that everyone can adjust it as they should?
A very poor update, let’s see when the stereo pilot range margin is expanded. Autopilot and a programmer to change presets according to the program would also be good, oh and RDS2 to insert the logo.
