Apps can unfortunately go wrong some times with a 'bug'. If or when that happens, we want to squash that pesky bug as soon as we can.
However, if we don't know about it, we cannot fix it. So, we need your help there.
PLEASE DO CONTACT US (don't assume someone else will!) and provide whatever background to the bug that you can (e.g. how to repeat it etc.) rather than just leaving a "it's broken" review which we cannot respond to, that may not give us the information we need to find out what has gone wrong and, more importantly - does not help us quickly fix things for you.
We have quickly fixed many bugs for the benefit of all as a result of kind people promptly reporting them to us (and we thank them for that!).
We provide general support to our customers through regularly updated Product User Guides, Product FAQs and through a self-help Forums where we and like-minded, knowledgeable and helpful customers can contribute and share knowledge. This let us focus on:
If our community can help you with your queries, then everyone benefits.
We try to ensure our User Guides contain the information you need to use our current Apps. We also supplement that material with relevant FAQs, below, and Tutorials and Videos. If you do not find what you need in either of those, also try the relevant forum. For earlier retired apps no longer available for sale also see the User Guide Archive.

Firstly, thank you for your support and for being a superfan - it means a lot to us.
A large part of why we continue with our creative relaxation apps is to help people find peace (personal artistic creative expression) and enjoy moments of reflection.
Yes, we price our apps very reasonably for what they are and the years of work that have gone into them. We just hope that in doing that we can reach more people.
One way you can help us is by spreading the word, talking about Wotja and how you use it and sharing some of the things you make.
If you do want to pay a little bit more then you might also consider getting a weekly (low cost and easy to cancel) Wotja X 'Long Play' subscription. That would trickle a little more funds our way and would help a lot. See the 'Tip Jar' rationale here: FAQ: Specialist 'Long Play' In-App Subscriptions - what were they and who were they for?
Anyhow, those are just a couple of suggestions. Thanks again for your support!
We are a hard working 2-man artisan developer team who takes great pride in our niche music apps and who give them our all. Due to their inherent complexity they are very hard to build which is why you will find it hard to find anything else that covers the same breadth of capabilities.
For the last few years and for all our paid apps we tried to work on a roughly annual (chargeable) 'fullgrade' cycle. For our complex and unique tools this helped allow us to develop new features and capabilities and to work on continued maintenance (software does not write itself, extend itself or even maintain itself - all require sustained ongoing effort from the developer).
As we operate in a very niche, low volume, market then for us to get sufficient income to allow the forgoing from an app priced at just a few dollars, especially if it is a "one off purchase for all time", is extraordinarily difficult (it's actually impossible).
The very real world situation faced by every app user (and we are app users, too) is that without ongoing maintenance all apps, even just standing still, will eventually die as operating system changes obsolete them.
So, to better serve our customers, we took the tough decision back in 2016 to improve productivity and reduce costs (for some background on the reasons behind our decision please see this forum post). This decision meant that rather than spending our development time working on the next chargeable major version of Noatikl, we would work to consolidate the best of Noatikl 3, Mixtikl 7, Wotja 3 and Tiklbox 1 - and further improvements and extensions - into just one app - Wotja (and its cross-platform variant Wotja X).
We hope that enough customers want us to survive, want to see what the next part of our journey will bring and will stay with us through this time of change. If that is the case, then, with Wotja, we should in the longer term be much better placed to be able to extend this one app with new features and capabilities and to maintain it (this is particularly important if you have created files in our other apps that you want to be able to continue to play in the coming years).
IMPORTANT: We now expect that in April 2018 we will complete our work to make Wotja X a comprehensive authoring system that represents the future for Noatikl, Mixtikl, Liptikl and Tiklbox across all platforms (iOS, macOS, Windows, Android). At that time the apps below will be removed from sale.
Important: Noatikl 3 / Mixtikl 7 / Liptikl 1 for Windows have now been removed from sale. Their future is now to be found in Wotja X.
Yes, for apps that we are continuing to develop, we do make "upgrades" available - and by "upgrade" we mean a new major version (i.e. Wotja V5 following on from Wotja V4, or Noatikl 3 following on from Noatikl 2 etc.).
However, upgrades are all paid for in one way or another, so we guess what you are probably asking is "how much do they cost?" and "how do I get them?". For some years now we have operated a Fullgrade Model; see below for info on that and for the differences between Updates and Upgrades etc.
Rather than having a Full Price purchase for our Software (e.g. Wotja V4) followed by upgrades at a lower Upgrade Price (e.g. Wotja V5), we decided in 2012 to forgo the higher initial Full Price and simply sell major versions at the lower Upgrade Price - we call this hybrid approach a "Fullgrade" model. Even though we lose out on the initial "revenue blip" we did it because A) it cuts out complexity (for both you and us) and B) for new customers it also means our apps now cost less than they otherwise would have done.
If you want an "Upgrade" with its new features and content then just buy the newest non-subscription Annual Version and know you are getting a good deal. Alternatively, get the subscription version and keep an active In-App Subscription, which works out even less! See below for more info.
Updates: We provide free "updates" for all our apps whilst they remain available for sale (e.g. Wotja, Wotja/Wotja X 2018 during 2018, Noatikl 3 etc.).
Initial Purchase: Since 2012 we have only had an "Upgrade Price" (see "Fullgrade" Model, above) whereas for most Software there is traditionally a "Full Price" first purchase followed by a lower cost "Upgrade Price" for each new Major Version.
Upgrades: "Major Version" increments of our apps, i.e. Upgrades, have always been new "paid for" apps (e.g. Noatikl 2 > Noatikl 3) and sold at Upgrade Prices (see "Fullgrade" Model, above). Once a new version of an app is released then the previous version is retired (removed from sale) and no further updates are made available for it. If you want further updates or new features, simply purchase the new version which is already at an Upgrade Price.
Subscriptions (Wotja X only): An active subscription in one of our subscription apps is like having a rolling upgrade program for it, which one of the reasons you may wish to consider In-App Subscriptions. See the Subscription FAQ.
Annual Releases (Wotja/Wotja X only): We make available 'paid-for' annual releases (e.g. Wotja 2017, Wotja/Wotja X 2018) with same capabilities and regular updates as the the subscription version and these are updated in tandem with the subscription versions (as available) up until the end of the relevant year; if you want *further updates* after this time you would need to purchase the *next* paid-for version. You may continue using this version for as long as you like (assuming, of course, it runs OK on any new OS you choose to install); if you want to save even more money then get the subscription version.
App Bundles: These are not part of our Fullgrade model, where prices are already at upgrade levels. We have in the past used them to give a discount for bulk purchase of multiple paid for apps. Now that we have consolidated to just one app, Wotja/Wotja X, we no longer have a need to offer App Bundles.
Well, that is up to you and will be down to whether or not you want or need any features/content in it. If you do not think the feature set for a particular Major Version or Annual Release is strong enough and you don't want or need it, you don't have to get it - you can skip it. There is no obligation for you to buy the new Major Version or Annual Release and, remember, if you have purchased a paid for app you can continue using it for as long as you like (assuming, of course, it runs OK on any new OS you choose to install). Doing things this way very much keeps us on our toes, and there is no fig leaf for us to hide behind.
P.S. Don't forget, if you purchase a paid for your app near the end of the previous Major Version or Annual Release cycle then it is still great value as, at an "upgrade price", you get the benefit of all the improvements that we packed in during that cycle (be they features, fixes or stability)!
Toolchains are always changing, and it can take a lot of time to modify, test and update software to support new versions of an OS or new 3rd party libraries (e.g. AudioBus etc.). That is why for each Major Version or Annual Release cycle we try hard to ensure our software works correctly with what is available at the time and whilst it is availabale.
As the years go by, though, older versions of our software may not work correctly with newer 3rd party services or a newer OS that you may choose to upgrade to (remember, it is entirely YOUR CHOICE to do that). That attrition is just the way the appverse works. It is a tough choice, but we simply do not have the bandwidth to continuously update old apps that may have cost a few dollars AND to keep our current apps moving forwards for customers who want new things.
We love our customers and our goal is to build for them very powerful, high quality generative tools. We are like master craftsmen with years of experience - but we exist in a very small, niche, market. We take on board and act on all feedback about the quality our apps - after all, we want to make them the best we can. We hope you enjoy our apps and that you will consider giving them nice reviews!
However, if you are thinking of leaving a negative review, perhaps because you are unhappy about pricing, or indeed anything else, then please first stand back, take a deep breath and reflect on the following before doing so:
Every negative review that is left impacts our sales and so adversely impacts on our ability to survive in our niche market. We know that you expect to be able to eat for the work you do, and we know that you are a nice person and you would want us to eat, too, for the work we do. For 2 guys like us to develop our complex apps (and update them) is a very, very time consuming activity. If we cannot (somehow) make enough money to keep it all going then our niche apps will simply wither and die. If you have any serious issues or pressing concerns then please get in touch with us directly, rather than airing those in a public review that is often hard to respond to. We thank you for your understanding! Tim and Pete
Remember: You can always get in touch with us directly.
We adopted a subscription model for Wotja/Wotja X for a number of important reasons. If you don't like subscriptions or their benefits (see below) then check out Wotja 2018 or Wotja X 2018, the paid-for 'annual' versions with the same capabilities as the subscription versions with an active 'Unlocked' In-App Subscription (as available).
An 'auto-renewing In-App Subscription' is a subscription that auto-renews after a period of time (e.g. week, month etc.), meaning you are charged again at the beginning of each such period. They are convenient because, for something you love and use regularly, you do not need to make a new purchase each time the subscription ends. They are very easy to cancel.
An 'In-App Purchase' is completely different. These are purchased ONCE and do NOT auto-renew like a subscription.
If you are the kind of person that is always likely to have a device that can run the latest version of OS, and you do like to keep it updated with the latest version, then monthly auto-renewing In-App Subscriptions are good for many reasons - and they are easy to cancel at any time. They are not the bad thing some people might claim or fear they are, especially when used by a bone-fide developer (like us) that creates high quality paid for software that does not treat you as the product. They are a win-win for both customer and developer.
Some of their benefits, and why we now use them in Wotja/Wotja X, are as follows:
NB: You may instead wish to purchase the paid-for 'annual' version (as available). Over the course of a year the annual version will cost less than a year of subscriptions.
Yes, it is very easy to cancel your subscription and you can do so at any time up to 24 hrs before it renews. You may even decide to cancel it just after you purchased it - that is your choice - so that it won't automatically renew.
All that happens is that at the end of the subscription period the app will revert to operating in 'Free Mode', i.e. the feature set and capabilities you can use for free. If or when you decide you would like to start a new subscription you can do so at any time.
Important: Provided you have Wotja/Wotja X installed on your device and are using Wotja with iCloud then if your subscription lapses you will always have access to and be able to open/play in 'Free Mode' any previously created Wotja files. If you are using Wotja/Wotja X with iCloud and have to reinstall Wotja/Wotja X then you are still fine as your Wotja files should still be safe in iCloud. However, if you were not using iCloud and deleted Wotja/Wotja X without first backing up your files somewhere then you will have lost those files.
Apple provides detailed information on managing subscriptions. Please refer to : https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039
It is up to the developer to set the prices for the subscription options they decide to make available (both subject to change) and they will balance many factors - it is ultimately a cost/return equation.
Getting that balance right is an art, not a science. Because of that we may need to adjust our In-App Subscriptions and prices over time.
Prices for our apps have fluctuated over the years, but you may in the past have purchased a non-subscription Noatikl 3 for iOS ($12.99), Mixtikl 7 for iOS ($7.99), Liptikl 2 for iOS ($4.99), Wotja 3 for iOS ($3.99, but no longer available) and the 2 Albums in Tiklbox for iOS ($1.99 each, no longer available to purchase). Had you done that it would have cost you around $34 USD (or equivalent in iTunes pricing). If you had got some of those via one of the latest bundles we did (which offered 15% discount on bundle purchases of paid apps) then it could have cost you around $29 USD.
A 1 month 'Unlocked' In-App Subscription for 'Wotja'/Wotja X' (the successor to Noatikl, Mixtikl, Liptikl and Tiklbox) is currently just $1.99 USD [iOS] and $3.99 USD [macOS] - making it easy to dip in and out of as you wish.
If you decide not to continue with your In-App Subscription then the limitations in 'Free Mode' are re-instated.
That's OK; get the annual version (where available) instead! These being Wotja 2018 and Wotja X 2018.
We want you to be clear as to what subscriptions are and why and how we use them in '/'. If you purchase a subscription then you get our eternal gratitude and you will know that you have encouraged us to continue development of our generative music tools. Thank you!
Yes, you can do this and Apple will take into account (pro-rate) the time left on your existing tier. They refer to this as a subscription 'Upgrade'. The wording they use to describe how it works is in the Subscription Properties section of this developer documentation. We refer to that as Apple (not us) handles how this happens:
"Upgrade: When a customer switches from a subscription in a lower level to a subscription in a higher level. The customer’s prorated amount from the prior in-app purchase is refunded to the original payment method. The new in-app purchase is charged and goes into effect immediately at the full price, which changes the customer’s renewal date to the upgrade date."
This means you can start out with a Long Play 'Personal' tier In-App Subscription and then move at any time to a higher tier e.g. 'Biz 1'. The value of any outstanding days on your previous tier is pro-rated and that value is used to offset the initial purchase price of your new In-App Subscription (we believe Apple does this way rather than issue a refund). Your subscription period is then reset to start from the date that you purchase that higher tier.
Sorry, but we never build custom apps/software ('software').
In order that our software can meet the needs of as many use cases as possible 'out of the box' we work very hard to make it both powerful and flexible. We then publish it 'As is' and make it available to all at very reasonable prices. It reflects our 'inmo' approach in that 'it does what it does at any one moment in time'.
Of course we want it to have the features and capabilities that artists want/need to do the cool things they do. Because of that we do take onboard feedback/features suggestions (see our contact form). We do listen and consider things carefully.
However... we already have a very long list of things we want to do meaning we try never to pre-announce features or make any promises as to what might come next or when. This is mainly because we do not want to over commit and then have to disappoint - when something is done we will announce it.
Tip: To figure out if our software can do what you want can often require a good deal of experimentation and there is no shortcut to that. If you are working on an art project and you want to do specific things then get in touch as we are happy to try to give pointers as to things / approaches to try. At the end of the day, though, if you want specific results then you need to assure yourself it can do what you want - and that the means setting aside enough time to work with and familiarise yourself with its capabilities and the results it creates.
Tip 1: We strongly recommend using the iCloud / iCloud Drive folder wherever you can as the files in iCloud will always be backed up. You don't then need to understand the intricacies of the "Intermorphic Folder" or Local Device folder.
Tip 2: If you only save files locally to your device, see Apple's docs on iTunes Apps File Sharing for details on how to copy files (e.g. App Files and Other Content) from iOS to/from Mac/PC and vice-versa. This is important for backing up your files (see also "What should I backup?")
Zip Files: ALWAYS put Zip Files in the right place:
Other Referenced Content: For best results ALWAYS put these in Zip Files (specifically, Paks when it comes to .WAV or .OGG).
Tip: On your device we strongly recommend you put Zip Files in the apps iCloud folder (or a subfolder under that for easy organisation, e.g. "zips"). File references to content in these Zip files will then work across all versions of the apps, this being important for those whose work flow includes Wotja and Noatikl or Mixtikl. You can, if you want, also transfer them to your Apps Device folder using iTunes Apps File Sharing.
iCloud Note: On first start up of an iCloud-supporting iOS app, if "iCloud" is selected in the pop up rather than "Local Storage", then any App Files that are stored in the Apps Device folder (including Zip Files) will be moved to iCloud. After that, no App Files or Other Content are saved here and App Files or Other Content that are copied here will NOT appear in the relevant App's Files screen.

Intermorphic apps that support Apple iCloud / iCloud Drive:
The iCloud Drive folder on macOS is found here:
~/iCloud Drive/Wotja/
~/iCloud Drive/Noatikl/
~/iCloud Drive/Mixtikl/
~/iCloud Drive/Liptikl/
We strongly recommend using iCloud / iCloud Drive wherever you can.
There are five main reasons for that:
Note on iCloud Drive Subfolders (folders under the main app folder):
Our iOS apps support "flat" folders meaning they will display all files under the root folder, including files in any subfolders.
Tip: If you want to limit what files are displayed in the iOS app, you need to move the files you don't want to see out of the main app folder, perhaps into a "Archived" folder under iCloud Drive.
Apple iCloud Drive FAQ:
See: iCloud Drive FAQ
How to display iCloud Drive on your iOS device home screen:
Tip: Why can't I see the relevant app folder in my Mac's iCloud Drive folder or in the iCloud Drive on icloud.com?
Tip: Even if you have Wotja / Wotja X for iOS or Wotja 2017+ for iOS installed on your device, to see the Wotja iCloud folder on Mac, we strongly suggest installing either Wotja / Wotja X for macOS or Wotja 2017+ for macOS.
If you have just installed one of our iCloud Drive supporting apps for the first time, then it seems it can take a while for the iCloud Drive synching to happen and for the folders/files to appear on your Mac. We know not why.... but a couple of suggestions to try are:
Prior to iCloud-supporting Wotja 4, Noatikl 3 and Mixtikl 7, the Intermorphic Folder is where we used to recommend putting your own content that you wanted to be used by our apps so that it could be consistently referenced in files created by them. This was important for a workflow that required using content in different versions of the apps (mobile/desktop) and between different apps - and you wanted that content to play consistently.
Now that iCloud use is commonplace for Wotja 4+, Noatikl 3 and Mixtikl 7 we strongly recommened using the iCloud / iCloud Drive folder instead. However, for the desktop versions you can still use it as a fallback if you wish.
Noatikl 2 and earlier; Mixtikl 6 and earlier:
Tip: In Mixtikl 7 / Noatikl 3, to use App Files or Other Content from an earlier version, simply first move it to the Intermorphic Folder (a *flat* folder).
The Desktop Noatikl and Mixtikl Apps look for Zip Files and Other Content, where used and referenced in an App File, in a specific folder. This allows such content to referenced/used in both mobile and desktop versions of those apps. We call this folder the "Intermorphic Folder". It is a *flat folder* (where tilde [~] or %HOMEPATH% in the pathname below is a shortcut for your user account name).
Mixtikl Note: The "User_Content" folder (Mixer > Mixer Cell > Content button, then ".." and scroll the list to see it at the bottom) is an alias for the "Intermorphic Folder", and is the fastest way to see the files located in it.
The "Intermorphic Folder" is found here:
~/Music/Intermorphic/
(Mac)%HOMEPATH%\Music\Intermorphic\
(Windows)/Intermorphic/
(Android)
~/Music/Intermorphic/IMTPALLoopEssentials1.zip
~/Music/Intermorphic/zips/IMTPALLoopEssentials1.zip
. Files are still saved to the Intermorphic Folder.If you have a lot of SF2 and you want to keep things tidy then if all the sf2 are in a flat folder you can just zip the SF2 files.
~/Music/Intermorphic/zips/mySF2Collection1.zip
. We appreciate you may have lots of SF2 you might want to use, or even collections of them and you want to keep things tidy and structured on your PC or even in the Wavetable SF2 list.
You might wish to zip with folders if:
Say you have the following collection of SF2 files that you want to use in an App (and want to show up in the Wavetable Unit SF2 list like this, too):
mySF2Collection1/drones/drone1.sf2
mySF2Collection1/pads/pad1.sf2
mySF2Collection1/synths/synth1.sf2
To retain that structure you must zip the above directory *such that it keeps the entire folder paths*. You can give this zip any name, maybe something like “mySF2Collection1.zip”
In macOS you can create this zip by right clicking the "mySF2Collection1" folder and selecting “Compress 'mySF2Collection1'”. Alternatively, in Terminal, navigate to the folder above this folder and type:
zip -r mySF2Collection1.zip mySF2Collection1
You can check that the zip has the files you expect in it by typing in terminal:
unzip -t mySF2Collection1.zip
Now, put this zip file in the iCloud Folder (Wotja only) or *at the top level* of the Intermorphic Folder, restart the App and then create and save Pieces that reference these SF2. If you then move those Pieces between Apps, they should still play just fine (provided you have copied that zip file in of course!).
Note: Using iCloud as your App File (and Other Content) backup mechanism is very convenient. It also keeps them in sync across devices and so makes it easy to work with those files in the iOS version of that app. However, not all your App related files will be in iCloud (see File Management).
Sometimes we get reports of partial or corrupt downloads of zip files we make available via our website. We are not entirely sure why, but it seems there is a relationship to the browser you use to make the download.
If a zip file has not fully downloaded and you attempt to unzip it you will be informed it is corrupt, i.e. you have made a partial download (we list the size of the downloads so that you can check they seem about right). Before attempting to download the zip again, please delete any such previously downloaded version of that zip that might be in your browser cache.
Browsers:
One other suggestion...
If you have tried different browsers and are still getting partial downloads then when you go to download the zips, try right clicking on the link and then selecting “Save As” or “Save File As” and putting it somewhere new. This has helped some in the past.
See the "Redownload an app" section on this Apple page.
If you have purchased one of our tools from our Web store, you will receive an email containing your Customer ID, Order ID and Product Key. If you are having problems getting the Product Key accepted, please try the following:
If you are having problems getting the Product Key accepted the most likely reason is that you have a space in front of or after the Product Key in the the Product Key field (there should be no space). Also, note that you have to enter the Product Key into each product you wish to use (i.e. Standalone or Plugin).
Note: If you're running on Windows, and find that Liptikl, Mixtikl or Noatikl don't save their license key when you close the application, use the Windows option to run the program using "Run as Administrator". Enter and save your registration details. Restart the application normally: it should now be fine. If you've got trouble saving the license key for Noatikl or Mixtikl VSTi, you should run the host application (e.g. Reaper) as Administrator, set your license key details, then close the application and restart it normally.
We try as hard as we can to make our apps stable. If this app does crash on you, then the chances are that for crashes in new apps (released after Jun 2014) we will get reports from the HockeyApp integrated crash reporting system. Because of this, we have the best chance of fixing crashers and so our latest versions are likely to be the most stable. This is one reason we recommend that you always update your Intermorphic apps to the latest version, where your device/OS allows.
If you are using an earlier app then you can still send us a crash log so that we can investigate and try to fix the problem (for all users). The crash log files all start with the app name, and have an extension "crash". They are text files that we can read, and give us useful information in tracking-down a crash.
Please send the text in them to us via our feedback form, and don't forget to tell us what you were doing when you had the crash! Hopefully we will be able to fix the crash in the next update.
Here is how you get the crash log files:
Note: Also refer to this article.
To find a log file, in Finder open:
~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/
You may have to hold down the option key when using the Go menu in the Finder to open the Library folder (this is needed on Lion and above).
See this article.
Open Event Viewer, then go to Windows Logs -> Application and look for errors.
Note: Also refer to this article.
~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice/<YOUR_DEVICE>(the tilde ~ in the pathname is a shortcut for your user account name.
To find the log file, open ~/Logs/CrashReporter/MobileDevice/ in the Finder and look for a file appended .crash
<drive>:\Users\<YOUR_NAME>\AppData\Roaming\Apple computer\Logs\CrashReporter/MobileDevice/<YOUR_DEVICE>
We strongly recommend backing up your content before removing an app from your iOS device, but you are here as you probably did not do that.
You can get your files back if you made an iTunes backup at some point, a backup that contains your Mixtikl/Noatikl files. You need to get the Mixtikl/Noatikl files you want from that backup and copy them off the device. Then, you need to copy them back again. Note that IAP purchase keys are also stored in a backup, but these can be more easily recovered via a Restore in the Mixtikl Store or Noatikl Store, as relevant.
The way an iTunes Restore works is that ALL data in the backup is restored to your device, so if you are restoring an old backup (say something from 3 months ago), it will overwrite everything that you have on your device today. So proceed carefully.
This is the order in which you need to do things (but we are not liable if anything goes wrong!):
Yes you can! Follow these instructions:
We have changed our forum style recently and are experimenting with a new one. To register on our Forum, select the Login button on the left (the Login button is below the Intermorphic logo on the left and next to the Options button, and both are above the text "Board Index"). If you select the Registration link that indicates you are under 14, you will get a COPPA form. Our forum is not intended for those under 14.
We try to provide here answers to any common licensing questions. If you have a question you need an answer to concerning licensing of our products, and it is not answered here, try also contacting us.
Broadly speaking, we have tried to draft our Software EULAs to be flexible for you. We don't want our licence to get in the way of you working and coming up with great ideas.
So, if you have 2 computers and have purchased the relevant licences and relevant versions of the Software are available to download direct from the intermorphic.com website you can install and use that software on both of them (but not use the software simultaneously on both, though!).
With the relevant licence and where relevant versions of the Software are available to download direct from the intermorphic.com website you can install and use both Mac and Windows versions of the software, too, including if your computers are dual boot Win/Mac systems.
Please note that Noatikl, Mixtikl and Liptikl for Mac are now only available from the Mac App Store, which has different licencing terms.
Please note that we cannot give any legal interpretations of the EULA licence (*we are not lawyers*), but we hope the pointers below are of help. At the end of the day, be sensible: respect the rights of 3rd parties, comply with their licence terms and use a validly licenced version to make the recordings. If you do feel you need an interpretation you will need to ask a lawyer!
Important Notes:
With the above Important Notes being observed, then, in general, you own the rights to recordings you make and can use them commercially provided that when making them:
With respect to recordings made of mixes using or featuring content from the FREE Paks (i.e. AL Collections 1-3, Morphing Drum + Bass which include content we licence from a 3rd party), then you will also need to comply with the Intermorphic Pak EULA and pay particular attention to the clause in relevant licence for those Paks:
"You may mix together content from the Pak, modify Template parameter settings, and combine content from the Pak with other content over which you have the requisite rights, in order to create your own Noatikl, Mixtikl, Wotja or Partikl files (variously "Files"), IM Software Music URLs (variously "Music URLs") and audio or MIDI mix recordings (variously "New Content"). You are free to distribute the New Content provided (i) the New Content constitutes an original work (ii) you have the necessary distribution rights in any third party content (iii) any Music URLs you self-publish or distribute in any way comply with the Intermorphic Website Terms of Service (http://intermorphic.com/tos) and (iv) individual sound samples are not used in isolation." and "You may not use content from the Pak to create music libraries for distribution to third parties and you may not modify any included 3rd party sound samples."
With respect to the Paks above, if you are wanting to create music libraries of any kind, then you would not be licenced to do that. Similarly, if any of the sound samples are used in isolation (i.e. not mixed against another sample playing at the same time), then you would not be licenced to do that.
If you also include other content in your mix then you will only own the recordings if you definitely have the necessary rights and comply with any licencing terms for that additional content.
Of course not (but please note that Educational versions may not be used for commercial or business purposes)! However, please do ensure you comply with the licence terms for any Intermorphic Pak and/or 3rd party content you use in your recordings.
Yes, you can. We have made it easier to do this with Wotja and Wotja XT subscriptions and a new Clause 9 in our EULA.
Also refer to Clause 17h in our EULA.
