Welcome

Thank you for your interest in ShakePad. If you are running the DEMO version,
please test it carefully and contact GSi with any questions not covered by this
manual. In order to save time trying to figure out how something is supposed
to work, we highly recommend you read this manual before, or while,
exploring ShakePad.

Demo Limitations

Prior to being authorized, ShakePad will display an initialization screen on each
startup. Click the “RUN DEMO” button to start using ShakePad in Demo Mode.
All features are fully functional in Demo Mode, but a white noise burst will be
added to the background for 2 seconds every 10 seconds.

If you like ShakePad, you can purchase an Activation Key by visiting the GSi
website at www.genuinesoundware.com and following the instructions. You can
also click the “BUY NOW” button in the initialization screen.

PLEASE! SUPPORT INDEPENDENT SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS by purchasing the
software you use. Stay away from fraudulent websites that sell illegal copies of
software for a fraction of the original cost and avoid the temptation to
download software illegally from peer to peer networks. Your purchase can
make the difference between an independent developer being able to create
and support their software, and going out of business.

Please buy the software you use directly from the manufacturers’ web stores
or authorized resellers. If you can't afford the expensive, “big name” software,
keep in mind that there is always an affordable alternative out there. Find
those alternatives and avoid warez at all costs!

Thank you.
