serial number

Welcome to the Magix users forum.

First, we need you to clarify some things: Magix is the company who manufacture the software Sound Forge.

Please tell us exactly which Magix product you have bought and from where. We can assume it is Sound Forge but the actual place of purchase is very important.

Also, the message of an invalid serial number would suggest you are trying to use one that is applicable to something like Sound Forge Audio Studio but have actually installed Sound Forge Pro, or vice versa.

I want trying to activate Soundforge Audio Studio 17

And I used the serial number that came in my email when I purchased Music Maker

@Paul-Godwin Please check the same e-mail for additional serial numbers. Every software has its own serial. By the way, is Sound Forge Audio Studio 17 even included in Music Maker? I don't know.

Paul-Godwin wrote on 8/21/2024, 4:03 PM

Yes, its included. 5 different softwares came with it.

It says Soundforge 12.6, but doesn't give a link to download it.

@Paul-Godwin Sound Forge 12.6 is available in the Music Maker in-app-store. If I remember it correctly it's under the features category.

It's in my email from Magix

Paul-Godwin wrote on 8/21/2024, 6:04 PM

I received Soundforge, wizard efx suite, core efx suite, izotope ozone 11 elements, native instruments hybrid keys

@Paul-Godwin

Open Music Maker and on the first screen that appears once the program is fully running find the box highlighted below and click on it.

You will then see this screen:

Note: it is SFAS 12.6 you can download, not any later version!

I have Music Maker 2024, that doesn't come up on my first screen.

@Paul-Godwin Download it from the in-app-store like I mentioned before.

@Paul-Godwin

From memory, it should be under the downloads tab. Did you check there? If not, there are probably other things that need to be downloaded there.

Hi @Paul-Godwin, here is a link to download the unpacked SFAS 12.6 installer. The download will expire in 7 days.

You still must have a SFAS-12 serial code to activate it after installation.

I need to register Sound Forge Audio Studio 9.0d. I keep getting an error message saying my serial number is invalid. How do I find the serial number? It isn't printed on the CD.

@Jana-McAlpin

You are asking about a different version of Sound Forge Audio Studio to the one listed by the original questioner so should really have been placed in a new thread.

However, since you are asking about a version produced before Magix owned the product line please read this post in the Magix Vegas forums and follow its advice.

If that is not the solution for you, you should log into your Magix account (if you have never set this up I understand your Sony account credentials will allow you to log into your Magix account), go to My products and check the details there.
