The trial access key should have been sent in an e-mail Simon. Might be worth having a check in your junk or deleted items folders.
If you can't get it working with Foobar you could always give the trial of JRiver a go. I've never used plug ins before but found it easy enough to set up using Tech Boy's instructions.

You also have Noisebud Listen for HD 650s. For USD 7. Not used it though. Then you have Accudio for iOS. Isn't as feature rich but supports more headphones. And viper4android for Android. Please call me oldson, I'll call you and hold you by the hand to ensure you are able to set it up. As as for the trial key: Check your spam, trash and junk as well. And search using Sonar works , Sonarworks etc. You'll find it. Don't worry.  I can call you if you want.

Is the $69 fee a one off or annual subscription?

When I get home later I may just buy it and persevere with setting it up.

Okay.  Buy from the Worldwide store. It costs $69 there instead of €69.

Simon, received an e-mail as a result of signing up for the trial. Might be of some use to you:
Looks like it should work on either store. US is cheapest as techboy says at approx. £50 before discount applied.

performance wise i would love to know how this would compare to one of Frans' filters. i will have to try again with sonarworks following some of your comments Gordon. I think they might be pretty close, Simon. The one thing that makes the Kameleon different is the fact that it can use any source and not just a computer. There are also two versions, a portable ome (or more portable because it's fairly large) and a desk top version. Both now have a volume control as well and can drive pretty high i,pedance headphones nicely. Sonarworks ties you to a computer but works much the same way except you need an amp or dac/amp to follow. another advantage of a filter for me over sonarworks is when i switch from foobar to youtube, which i do quite a lot.

No worries.
I got another e-mail from them today saying that the single licence version is being withdrawn from 1st March. After that they'll only be selling the 3 licence version at the reduced price of 99 euros.
Seems an odd decision as I'm sure many folk only have one computer they'll use it on. No way I'd be willing to pay extra for licences I don't need...struggling to justify the cost of a licence as it is as I find the plug-in too limiting for my needs (limited amount of headphones supported and no integration with streaming services).

If you have JRiver you can use your VST plugins system wide. Explaining here is a bit complicated. I need to call you to share how to do this.

That's very kind of you but I've decided to give Sonar Works a miss. I don't have JRiver and had installed the trial version so I could try the SW headphone plug in. Even if I could apply it globally the limited amount of headphones that are currently supported means I'd rarely use it. Appreciate the offer though!
