Support Center Source-Connect 4 guides
Two editions. One guide is yours.
Source-Connect 4 is documented twice — once for the performer joining a session, once for the studio running it. Your subscription decides which guide you want.
Not sure which you have? Your tier is shown on your user Dashboard, and both guides cover Purchasing and Activating a Source-Connect 4 subscription. All three tiers are compared on the Source-Connect page.
