Licence agreement

Version 1.1, 4 October 2026

This agreement is between you and Jony-Christan Linton-Jude, trading as Jonybeats ("we", "us"), of Unit 6U, Atlas Business Centre, Oxgate Lane, London NW2 7HJ, England. It covers the StabLib FX software, including its plugin formats (VST3, AU), standalone app, factory presets, documentation and any updates we give you (together, "the Software").

By installing or using the Software you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't install it. If you've bought it, see our refund policy. If you're under 18, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you.

1. Your licence

We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and use the Software, subject to these terms. A personal subscription's licence is personal to you. A Studio subscription's licence belongs to the business or organisation that takes it out (see "Studio subscriptions" below). You are buying a licence to use the Software, not the Software itself. We own it, including all copyright and other intellectual property in it.

  • Subscription: your licence lasts for as long as your subscription is paid up. It renews automatically at the end of each month or year (whichever you chose) until you cancel. You can cancel at any time in your account; you keep the Software until the end of the period you've paid for, and nothing more is taken.
  • Computers: with a personal subscription, you may activate the Software on up to 2 computers that you own or control, for your own use. With a Studio subscription, up to 5 computers that the business or organisation owns or controls. To move it to another computer, deactivate it on one first: click the StabLib FX logo in the plugin, then "Deactivate this device", or use your account.
  • Free trial: a new customer may try the Software free for 7 days, once per computer. Trials don't need payment details, and don't turn into a paid subscription unless you choose to buy one.
  • Business use: you may use it commercially, for example on productions you sell or are paid for.
  • Studio subscriptions are for one business or organisation, such as a studio, a production team or a school. Anyone who works or studies there may use the Software on its activated computers, for its work. It must not be used by, or shared with, anyone outside it. Whoever buys a Studio subscription confirms they may agree to these terms for the business or organisation, and "you" in these terms then means it.
  • Beta versions may be time-limited or have features missing. They are licensed only for testing, only for as long as we allow, and must not be shared.

2. What you make is yours

Audio you create with the Software belongs to you. You may use, sell and distribute it freely, with no royalties or credit owed to us. This includes audio that uses the factory presets.

3. What you must not do

Except where the law lets you do it anyway, you must not:

  • copy the Software, other than installing it as section 1 allows and keeping a backup of the installer;
  • share, sell, rent, lend or sublicense the Software, your account, your licence or the installer, other than among the people a Studio subscription covers;
  • remove or get around any licence check, trial limit or copy protection;
  • modify, decompile, disassemble or reverse-engineer the Software, except to the extent that section 50B of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 (or a similar law where you live) allows it for interoperability;
  • extract the factory presets, the embedded fonts, or any code or graphics, to redistribute or sell them, for example as a preset pack for another product. Presets you make yourself are yours to share.

4. Transferring your licence

A personal subscription is personal to you, and a Studio subscription belongs to the business or organisation that took it out. Neither can be transferred to someone else. If you'd like a subscription moved to another account of your own, email support@stablibfx.com.

4A. When your licence ends

If your subscription ends or a trial runs out, the Software keeps working safely: it still opens, your projects keep every setting, and it passes your audio through unchanged instead of processing it, until you subscribe again. Nothing you made with it is affected.

5. Updates and support

We may release updates, which these terms also cover. We don't promise to release any, to support any particular operating system or DAW version indefinitely, or to keep older versions available for download. Support is by email at support@stablibfx.com.

If you send us ideas, suggestions or feedback, for example while beta testing, we may use them to improve StabLib FX without owing you anything for them. Your own audio and presets stay yours (section 2).

6. Third-party software

The Software includes open-source components and fonts, used under their own licences. Those licences are reproduced in the file THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.txt inside each plugin and on our website, and they apply to those components instead of this agreement where the two differ.

7. Your data

To check your licence, the Software connects to our licensing provider, Moonbase, when you activate it and then at most every 6 hours while it's in use. It keeps working without the internet for up to 30 days after the last successful check. The check sends your licence, an identifier for your computer (a one-way code made from its hardware, which can't be turned back into serial numbers), and the Software's and your operating system's versions. It never sends your audio, your projects or your files. Our privacy policy explains this, and what we do with the information you give us when you buy, sign up or contact us.

8. If something goes wrong

If you are a consumer, you have legal rights, for example under the Consumer Rights Act 2015: digital content must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described. Nothing in this agreement affects those rights. If the Software is faulty, contact us and we will repair or replace it, or, where the law entitles you to one, give you a refund.

If you use the Software for business, then to the extent the law allows:

  • the Software is provided "as is", and we don't promise that it will be error-free or run without interruption on every system;
  • we are not liable for loss of profits, revenue, business, data or goodwill, or for any indirect or consequential loss;
  • our total liability to you is limited to what you paid for the Software in the 12 months before the claim arose.

For everyone: we are not liable for loss that wasn't foreseeable, and we don't exclude liability where it would be unlawful to, including for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud. Always keep backups of your projects.

9. Ending this agreement

This licence lasts until your subscription or trial ends. It also ends automatically if you seriously break these terms (for example by sharing your account or the Software). You can end it at any time by cancelling your subscription and uninstalling the Software. If we ever stop making the Software, our terms of sale say what happens to your subscription. When it ends, you must stop using the Software and delete every copy. Section 2 still applies to anything you made while you were licensed.

10. General

  • Governing law: the law of England and Wales. If you are a consumer living in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you can also bring proceedings in your local courts. If you are a consumer living elsewhere, you keep any protections your local law gives you.
  • If a court finds part of this agreement unenforceable, the rest still applies.
  • Changes: we may change this agreement, for example when we add features or the law changes. The current version, with its date, is always at stablibfx.com/eula. If a change could matter to you, we'll email you at least 30 days before it applies. If you don't agree to it, you can cancel, and you keep the Software until the end of the period you've paid for.
  • Trademarks: VST is a registered trademark of Steinberg Media Technologies GmbH. Apple, Mac, macOS, Logic Pro, GarageBand and Audio Units are trademarks of Apple Inc., and Windows is a trademark of Microsoft Corporation. Other product names we mention belong to their owners, who aren't connected with StabLib FX.
