Insights from satisfied users
Jodi Krangle
Voice Talent - Piece of Cake Voiceovers & Vocals
Source-Connect
I love the idea of not needing an iLok key. (Or to have to worry about the ports, either! It just works!) That will make it far easier to have the software installed on my travel machine. All in all, I just like the layout a lot better. It seems much more intuitive and easy to use. I would most definitely recommend Source-Connect 4.0 for the simple ease of use, seeing what you’re getting right up front, how compatible it seems to be with everything that’s out there now, and the low latency and ease of connection, it seems like a definite upgrade to me.

I’ve been using Source-Connect since 2007 on a regular basis (since the first version). The new interface is very user friendly and the addition of more settings and options to utilize during sessions is great. Source-Connect 3.9 is and has been a dependable method to connect for sessions and I think SCv4 will continue to be that and more. Port forwarding could sometimes be a challenge with SC 3.9 depending on each situation but with SCv4, not having that requirement just makes it that much more attractive. From my experience, using the new SCv4, I would certainly recommend it without hesitation.

Source-Connect
Coming 2 America features a number of surprise special music guests, including Gladys Knight. I was asked to go to Gladys’ trailer and rehearse her part together. She lives in Vegas and had done a recording session, which I was able to be a part of because of Source-Connect. I decided to have her vocal performance transcribed. So I had the printed music of what she sang. I showed up with the music printed that she had already sung, able to help her know where her inflections were and what she needed to do on camera.

Source-Connect
I’ve never physically conducted a live orchestra for any of my work, I’ve always just worked remotely asynchronously. This time around we used Source-Connect so that we could just log in and hear the audio as the performers were playing in real time. This is the first time that everybody involved in the scoring process has dialled in from different cities. It was actually a pretty smooth process.
Frequently Asked Questions
If I’m a subscriber to Source-Connect will I need to pay anything additional to use Source-Connect 4?
No. Subscribers continue the same monthly or yearly payment, and you’ll keep your Source-Connect 3 license as well as get your Source-Connect 4 license.
What happens if I cancel my subscription?
What is the Network Access fee? What does it include?
Network Access provides access to the following required services to make use of Source-Connect 4.
- Access to the global servers and relay networks that make connecting possible, reliable, secure and easy.
- Access to the latest version updates of Source-Connect, as soon as they are available.
- Access to our world-class support team for live support and additional assistance to make sure you are always able to connect to your clients and talent.
As of the release of Source-Connect 4 there will be constant updates. Access to the latest version may be required to connect to any other user of Source-Connect 4.
Does Source-Connect 4 connect with Source-Connect 3?
Will I lose my Source-Connect 3 license if I upgrade to Source-Connect 4?
In order to redeem your legacy plan, your iLok license must be converted to a Network-access capable license. When purchasing or upgrading you will be issued both Source-Connect 3 and 4 licenses so you can choose the best option for your session. Remember: both users need to be on the same version to connect.
After completing a purchase you will be emailed a license code that will prompt delivery of a new iLok license that will initiate the exchange process.
Upgrading from a previous Source-Connect license is risk-free. If you’re not entirely happy with Source-Connect 4, we’ll restore your old license. If at any time you do not want to continue use of Source-Connect 4, contact support and we will restore your original license.
If I purchased a Source-Connect 3 license in the past, will I have to pay to upgrade to Source-Connect 4?

Network Access provides access to the following required services to make use of Source-Connect 4.
- Access to the global servers and relay networks that make connecting possible, reliable, secure and easy.
- Access to the latest version updates of Source-Connect, as soon as they are available.
- Access to our world-class support team for live support and additional assistance to make sure you are always able to connect to your clients and talent.
As of the release of Source-Connect 4 there will be constant updates. Access to the latest version may be required to connect to any other user of Source-Connect 4.
Does Source-Connect 4 have a perpetual license?
We offer a Buy-In license which gives you access at the lowest cost in the long-term compared to any other method. Users who purchased their license before the release of Source-Connect 4 are further offered the legacy rate which will be the absolute lowest price anyone will ever pay for Network Access.
Network access for Buy-In license holders is charged at a yearly rate. It is important to note that Network Access is required to log in and use any license, including Buy-In or subscription.
You can also get a 2-day single-use license that does not include any support. See the plan options here.
What happens if I cancel my Buy-In Network Access plan?
Your Buy-In license remains yours forever: however you will not be able to log in or use Source-Connect 4 if your Network Access expires and is not renewed. You can always renew your access under your legacy rate. In case of any gaps, renewing Network Access may require an additional fee to reinstate. Please contact the Support team if you have any questions.
If I have an older license for Source-Connect, how do I upgrade to Source-Connect 4?
All past licenses of Source-Connect 3 can be upgraded to Source-Connect 4 at our loyalty legacy rate. Find more information about our loyalty program here
What happens if I need to install Source-Connect on a new computer while I’m travelling?
Easy! Since there is no iLok required for the new version, just download it, log in and run it. Your license allows you to install it on up to two computers at a time, which you can manage via your Dashboard.
Do I need an iLok account?
Source-Connect 4 uses a new account-based license system. Your Account license will be attached to your login username, no iLok required: just launch and log in. You only need a machine or USB based iLok license to use the legacy Source-Connect 3.
Is support included with Source-Connect 4?
Network access includes support and it is included with every subscription, and with every Buy-In license with active Network Access.
Our dedicated support specialists are accessible by phone and appointment – and we respond to emails at lightning speed.
Do both sides of the connection need to have a Source-Connect license?
Yes, both sides need a license to the same version of Source-Connect. As it is not possible to directly connect from Source-Connect 4 to Source-Connect 3, bridges will be available on the Dashboard for both subscribers and Buy-In license holders with active Network Access.
What happens if I am a Source-Connect 3 certified user?
Source-Connect 4 is a different version, thus you need to be re-certified. We have legacy options so please contact support.
Do you offer volume discounts?
Yes we do, please contact the Sales team for volume-licensing queries.
