HARDWARE

Description of the Hardware

Hardware is responsible for controlling guitar / bass amplifiers, or in certain cases digitally modeling the tones they produce.

Hardware provided by TWO NOTES is described on the Website and in the marketing materials downloadable on the Website. Hardware details are systematically brought to the attention of the Customer before each order. TWO NOTES reserves the right to make modifications, whether technical or relating to the form, whether operational or organizational, to the Hardware described in such materials.

The Customer is solely responsible for determining whether the Hardware suits their needs, and as a result the Customer places orders for such Hardware knowingly. The choice of Hardware, alongside its purchase, falls under the sole responsibility of the Customer. 

All contractual information is displayed to the Customer before the final confirmation of the order.

 

Legal and Regulatory Compliance

Hardware offered for sale by TWO NOTES complies with applicable EU laws and regulations.

 

Hardware Availability 

Hardware’s units offered for sale on the Website are limited to available stock. Indications as to the availability of Hardware are usually provided at the time of TWO NOTES’ confirmation of the order. Should Hardware be unavailable at the time an order is submitted, TWO NOTES shall inform the Customer of the unavailability and shall provide the Customer with an estimated time-frame for availability. 

In such cases, the Customer can cancel the order or agree to the new conditions (e.g. ordering another in-stock product or new delivery date). If the Customer decides to cancel the order, TWO NOTES shall refund Customer within thirty (30) days from the date of cancellation. 

In any event, if no response is received from the Customer, the order of the unavailable Hardware units will be automatically canceled after thirty (30) days and the Customer shall be refunded within ten (10) days from the date of cancellation.

Instructions for use and related warnings concerning the Hardware are detailed in the Hardware descriptions and/or are provided with the associated Hardware units at the time of delivery.

It is the Customer’s responsibility to read these instructions and warnings carefully and follow them diligently. TWO NOTES disclaims any and all liability should the Customer, or its users, fail to comply with any of these instructions.

SOFTWARE

Description of the Software

TWO NOTES provides its Customers with a variety of software solutions primarily focussed on the effecting and processing of electric guitar and bass audio. One such component is the proprietary DynIR format of virtual cabinet and bass emulations for installation on a computer or compatible TWO NOTES physical Hardware. The DynIRs are provided in a proprietary format that can only be used in conjunction with associated TWO NOTES’ software. Each DynIR can be used with multiple compatible Hardware units associated with the applicable user’s license.

TWO NOTES also offers to provide the Customer with a plug-in named “Wall of Sound” (hereinafter referred to as “WoS”) for use within third-party music production applications. WoS can be used as a plugin within compatible software called a “Digital Audio Workstation” (hereinafter referred to as “DAW”). 

Applicable Hardware is associated with software named “Torpedo Remote” that allows the Customer to control the Hardware with a desktop computer, tablet or mobile phone (pending Bluetooth integration on the associated hardware device). WoS and Desktop Remote allow Customers to audition DynIRs in real time, on line, from TWO NOTES’ library.

Each subscribed license on the Software is automatically added to the Customer’s account (see hereunder how to create an account). Once the Customer has registered Hardware in their account, the Customer is then authorized and enabled to use the Software with the registered Hardware. A Hardware unit can only be registered to one account at any given time.
