Some items failed to activate

[Number6]

I was activating Vocoder, via Presonus's super confusing activation facility, and got the above message, I only own Studio One Pro (No extra Presonus plugins).
I assume this is to be expected?

Yes. Those are things that Studio Pro + people can get, I believe. Or they have to be purchased? I don't remember exactly. This has been an issue for quite a while. At least since version 7 came out. I really don't think they should show up if you don't own them. I believe this has been reported.

Long long problem For a long long time. Restart Studio Pro a few times and it will finally stop.

Yep. It's just annoying when you go into the installation manager and tells you that there are required actions.

For me (and probably many others) I believe it is a reaction between this:

Which many of us snagged back in 2015-ish

and then these

and these:

Back in 2019.

During an install - it's almost as if that first "bundle" (2015) opens the door to the whole Fat Channel line-up and then in my case - these other 4 stragglers come in, announce their presence - and then the other 11 items from the 2015 era package freakout and error out.

I should be able to simply install these 4 2019 plugs straight up and ignore that other bundle.

But this entire installer (and/or it's sequence) is seriously messed up.

It does the same for CTC-1 for me. But, CTC-1 is listed on the splash page for FSP8 under the "45 plugins" that come with the program. Is this an error on the splash page, or is it just listing the subscription items? It's confusing.

The jury is still out on the CTC-1.

Lots of conflicting reports on whether it's in or out. I believe the website is incorrect TBH.

I was thinking the same.

I get the same. It's because we have a few of the items in the Fat Channel Collection but not all of them (they were free). The activation pixie can't seem to understand that situation so it tries to activate them all. It will happen anytime you activate anything else. It's harmless but is not a great thing for new customers to see! You're enthusiastically installing your new shiny thing and you gat a whole bunch of activation errors.
