What format have the PayWare Organs dont work with the Free Edition?
Hello Mauricio,
The Hauptwerk sample files can either be .wav (unencrypted) or .hbw (encrypted). The .hbw formated files are encrypted and cannot be used or edited in other programs allowinng sample producers to have copy protection available for their sample sets.
Some of the free instruments and trial/evaluation instruments use .hbw format and some can be used along with the Free edition and others not depending on how the producer formatted the samples. On the instrument downloads page each instrument has a View info > link which will inform you whether or not it can be used with the Free Edition or evaluation editions of Hauptwerk.
Is it possible to encrypt without USB key?
In order to encrypt samples you must have the Hauptwerk USB key and also a special update to this key which we primarily reserve for developers creating commercial sample sets.
I hope that helps.
