Spektralisk Audio
Daniel Stańczykiewicz
hereafter referred to as Spektralisk, I, or me.
Licensee
The purchaser of the Product, hereafter referred to as you.
Agreement Overview
By purchasing a Product (synth presets, samples, other audio-related materials, or software applications) from Spektralisk, you agree to the terms outlined in this End User License Agreement (EULA). This agreement governs the rights and responsibilities between you (Licensee) and Spektralisk (Licensor). Audio products and software applications are subject to separate provisions within this agreement.
Your Purchase
Your purchase grants you a non-exclusive license to use the Product as outlined in this agreement. You do not own the Product; ownership remains with Spektralisk, protected by applicable copyright laws. All content is my original creation.
Permitted Uses
You may use the samples and/or presets for commercial or non-commercial music and audio productions without seeking additional permission from me.
Prohibited Uses
You may not:
- Use the Product to create or distribute sound libraries for any synthesizer, virtual instrument, or sample-based product.
- Redistribute individual samples, presets, sound sets, or audio loops—whether for free or commercially—as standalone files.
- Repackage or resell the Product, in whole or in part, as audio samples, sound libraries, or sound effects.
- Sub-license or transfer this license to another party.
Liability Disclaimer
- The Product is provided as is without warranties of any kind, express or implied.
- I am not responsible for any direct, indirect, or consequential losses arising from your use of the Product.
- You are solely responsible for ensuring your use of the Product does not infringe on third-party rights.
Software Applications
This section applies to software applications sold or distributed by Spektralisk, currently: Samplework, Protoform, Protoform for Live and Prismat.
Grant of License
Spektralisk grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the software on your own computers for personal creative and professional purposes.
Restrictions
You may not:
- Redistribute, resell, sublicense, or transfer the software or any part of it to any third party.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the software.
- Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright notices, trademarks, or proprietary markings.
- Use the software to create a competing product or service.
Licence Keys and Activation (Protoform)
Protoform needs a licence key to unlock. You enter the key once in the plugin; it is then checked with Gumroad as described in the Privacy Policy.
- Trial. A trial key lasts 30 days from the moment you get it. Trial audio contains a short, regular noise cue so it can't be used in finished work. When the trial ends, your projects still open and play, with the cue, but editing, shuffling, loading kits and Extract are locked until you enter a full or Vault key.
- Full version. A purchased key unlocks Protoform with clean audio. It is rechecked about every 30 days; if a check can't reach Gumroad, the plugin keeps working for seven days before editing locks until the next successful check. If a purchase is refunded or charged back, the licence ends at the next check.
- Vault. A Vault key works while your Vault membership is active. When the membership ends, the licence ends at the next check. You can keep using Protoform by buying the full version, on the terms offered on the Vault page.
- Locked instances. When a licence ends or can't be verified, projects you already made keep playing (clean for full and Vault licences), and nothing in them is deleted. Editing, shuffling, loading kits and Extract are locked.
Packs You Make
If you create or share Protopacks or kits that contain sounds, you are responsible for having the right to distribute those sounds. Sounds from my products stay covered by the audio terms above: you may not redistribute them inside packs.
Beta Software
Software marked as a beta release is provided for early access and feedback purposes. It is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. Spektralisk does not guarantee that beta software will be error-free, uninterrupted, or suitable for any particular purpose.
Data and Files
The software operates on files and directories that you specify. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Spektralisk shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your use of the software, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of files, or damage to your file system. You are solely responsible for maintaining backups of your data.
Intellectual Property
All title, ownership, and intellectual property rights in and to the software remain exclusively with Spektralisk. This agreement does not grant you any rights to trademarks, service marks, or trade names of Spektralisk.
Termination
This license is effective until terminated. It will terminate automatically if you fail to comply with any of its terms. Upon termination, you must destroy all copies of the software in your possession.
License Term
Your license is valid indefinitely unless terminated. Termination may occur if:
- You violate the terms of this agreement.
- You return the Product as per the return policy.
If terminated, you must delete all copies of the Product from your devices and cease using it entirely.
