License

License activation and management

Overview

A Nobe LutBake license covers 1 seat (one Mac at a time). You can deactivate the license on one machine and activate it on another whenever you need to move it.

Without a license, the app runs in demo mode — fully functional but limited to 17x17x17 LUT export. All other features (keyboard shortcut, file naming, DRX export, etc.) work without restriction.

Activating Your License

After purchasing, you will receive an email with your license key. To activate:

1. Open Nobe LutBake and go to Settings → License.

2. Enter your Email and License Key.

3. Click Activate.

Enter your email and license key to activate

After activation, restart DaVinci Resolve so the OFX plugin loads with the active license. The menu bar app picks up the license immediately, but the plugin needs a Resolve restart.

Activate with Code (Offline / Firewall)

If direct activation fails — for example due to a firewall or proxy — you can use the Activate with Code method:

1. In the License tab, expand Activate with Code.

2. Click Request Code — this opens a webpage where you enter your email and license key.

3. The website generates an activation code.

4. Paste the activation code into the text field in the app.

5. Click Activate.

Offline activation: request a code from the website, then paste it into the app

Activated License

Once activated, the License tab shows your license status, email, and a masked license key.

Deactivating Your License

To move your license to a different Mac:

1. Open Settings → License.

2. Click Deactivate License.

3. The seat is released and can be activated on another machine.

Deactivation requires an internet connection. After deactivating, the app returns to demo mode (17x17x17 LUT limit).

FAQ

How many machines can I use the license on? One at a time. Deactivate on one Mac, then activate on another.

Do I need to be online to use Nobe LutBake after activation? No. An internet connection is only needed for activation and deactivation. Once activated, the app and plugin work offline.
