DSDPlus DSD+ Fast Lane program

[zapphoid]

I have been playing with the free version of DSD+ from the website and had though the Fastlane was dead as the site has not been updated since 2018 and no mention of any updates but from what I have found on this forum it looks to be still alive and kicking?

Yes, the creator doesn't promote it. he basically gets his business from word of mouth here and other SDR websites.

As for how long, that depends, DSD+FL is not made and distributed by a big company, it is one individual who does it all. He tries his best to respond to all orders as quickly as possible, but he has a life too, and is in a different time zone than most of us. I've seen it take a day, I've seen it take a week. Just like ordering anything online, you really can't be sure how quickly it arrives.

Your copy is tied to your paypal address. Make sure you check your paypal email address, especially the spam folder. And once you get the email, make sure you keep it forever because it will contain a password that you need to hold on to.

Like many programs, there is a place in it to get the updates. click on "Misc" in the "Event Log" and you will find "Check Updates" as well as new base files. It is now version 2.464. You must be using an antique.

OP was trying to find the information on the website before he upgraded from the free version, but there wasn't much info about updates on the website.

The author wants people to pay before downloading the Fastlane version. It helps to partly stop theft.
the information to do that is at that old page

The check updates and download base files features are not in all Fastlane versions so depending what FastLane version one has, those may or may not be present.

The base file feature was added in 2.268
