How does copy protection work in T-RackS?
T-RackS requires an Authorization Code for full installation. Until it's authorized, T-RackS will stay in demo mode. The Authorization Code is based on a Digital ID, generated by T-RackS starting from your system characteristics and your Serial number.

The correspondence between Digital ID and Authorization Code is checked every time T-RackS is started; this ensures that if you copy or install T-RackS on a different machine (which will have a different Digital ID), the same Authorization Code will NOT work. Check the IK General FAQ’s to learn more about Installation, Authorization and Registration related topics.

Does T-RackS support the Sound Designer II format? Does T-RackS support 24 bit, 96 kHz files (via AES/EBU input) files?
T-RackS supports both mono and stereo files at a variety of sampling rates. You can load and process 44.1 kHz (the standard sampling rate for CDs), as well as 48 kHz, 32 kHz and 22 kHz (stereo only). When working with 22 kHz sampling rates, T-RackS will adapt its EQ curves to the reduced bandwidth of 22 kHz sampling rates. For both PC and Macintosh, T-RackS supports 16 bit and 24 bit files.

On the PC platform, T-RackS supports .WAV files.
On the Mac, T-RackS supports both Sound Designer II and AIFF file formats.

Keep in mind that as a mastering tool, T-RackS should always be the last processing device in your audio production. If you need to process your audio with reverb, stereo image corrections, phase coherency adjustments, spectral enhancers and so on, do so before you master the files with T-RackS. T-RackS will apply dithering to its internal 32 bit floating-point resolution when down-sampling to CD-standard 16 bits

Windows: When I run T-RackS, all the interface parts are not visible but I can read all the green words. What's wrong?
Some graphic cards (especially ATI Rage class) cause this bug with T-RackS, when in 24 bit or 32 bit "True Color" mode.
Please change your screen settings to 16 bit "High Color" mode.
If this action does not solve your problem, try upgrading your graphic card’s drivers to the latest version available from the card manufacturer.
Remember that T-RackS requires at least the above mentioned screen resolution to work correctly. If you run T-RackS with only 256 colors you will see a warning message that suggests you increase the number of colors.

In the Mac Intel version of T-RackS Eq (included in the Ignition Pack), after I click on the “I” (Information) button an About windows appear. How can I close it back?
Just click on the body of the About Tracks window, not in the top gray area of it or the “I” button.
