Applicable to Media Composer only: any bins or projects you create during the 30-day trial will
only be usable when you activate a full editing license. If you activate the product in the middle
of trial period, the trial is no longer available, even if the license is deactivated and 30 days of
trial have not finished yet. Pro Tools does not have a trial period, Sibelius allows to use trial if it
is not finished yet, even if you activate and deactivate it in the middle of the trial period.
To purchase the Avid Editing Application during or after the 30-day trial use the Avid web store.
After your trial has been expired, you will no longer be able to use the product or feature. The
system will keep you informed of how many days you have left before the trial ends. At any time
during or after the 30-day trial period, you can choose to purchase a copy of your Avid editing
application from the Avid web store. If you choose not to purchase the software, your Avid
editing application is deactivated when the 30-day trial expires.
