Is the $150 single user license a perpetual non-subscription license and are all future updates are included?

Brian Maffitt

Pricing is confusing. Are the subscription fees on top of the License fee? I don't see an option to just pay for the subscription.

Sorry, I figured it out.

Yes to both questions

Hi, if I purchased a license on Gumroad can I transfer it to aescripts? I definitely prefer using their installer........ thanks!

You would need to cancel your Gurmoad license, notify me via email so that I can issue a refund if necessary, and then purchase a new license via aescripts. Unfortunately there's no way to connect the two at this stage. You can send me an email if you have any issues or questions.

Thanks Andrew! Do I just delete it permanently in Gumroad and then email you at [email protected]? 

Andrew Hicks

Cancel it, then delete it. i'm not sure of the exact naming but make sure you've cancelled the license on Gumroad. Then email me at that address. Let me know if you have any issues.

Andrew Hicks

Glad you like it Shane! Let us know if you have any questions.

if my language is not English, but Russian. Will everything still work the same?

I would like a perpetual version cheaper... at least $100

It should still work. If you have any issue we'd be happy to work through them with you.

Have you looked at the monthly or yearly subscriptions? They might suit your budget better than the lifetime version.

I am a fan of buying a product once and using it without thinking about time

A lot of nice, funky-looking styles. Can it generate the traditional style subs too? You know, one or two lines, white text... maybe black box bg, bottom of screen?

Hi Sean, that sort of style is definitely possible. You can customise all the mogrts and even create your own from scratch. You get full access with the free trial so you can take it for a test spin.

This is suddenly not working on the latest version of premiere 24.2.1.

Please fix.

Andrew Hicks

Adobe Bugs:
Adobe introduced issues with 24.2 of Premiere so we’re recommending users roll back to 24.1 or earlier. These have been resolved in the new public Beta versions, 24.3 (build 44) and 24.4 if you need the more recent features. The audio features are also available via the web apps.

Gaetan Desimone

Hey Andrew,

Is it possible to use the plug in with my own Mogrts? Tried linking an SRT to one I made and while it automated the timing of the mort it did not replace the text.

Thanks, super cool plug in you made!

Andrew Hicks

Hi Gaetan,
It is possible to use your own mogrts but they must be built to our specifications. There are certain properties that must be present for SubMachine to work. The Ⓣ Word Progression property is vital, as are the Ⓣ symbols alongside text properties. If you wish to create your own you can modify existing ones or we also provide a Blank Slate mogrt which provides the basic components to get started.

If you have any other questions our Discord server is probably the best place for them.

Happy creating!

Thiago Ricarte

Hi,

In After Effects, how can I edit/add detailed effects for MOGRT that utilizes the "Current Word" and "Specific Word" functionalities? Specifically, I'd like to know the expression paths needed to add a desired effect to the Submachine "Current Word" and "Specific Word" function. An example: if I want to modify an existing MOGRT template, such as "Dynamo", by adding an effect like "Current Word Bounce" (which is only available in the "Animator" template), what are the correct linking expression paths for this process?

Would be nice an advanced tutorial available that demonstrates how to achieve similar modifications in the "Blank Slate Template".

thanks.

Andrew Hicks

Hi Thiago,

It looks like we're addressing this via Discord. I think that's the right sort of platform for the back and forth this will require.

Let us know via Discord if you have any other questions.

Cristhian Ramirez

I am currently using Adobe version 2025 (Beta). Does the plugin not work there? Or can I purchase it and will it work correctly? Should I wait?

Andrew Hicks

Hi Cristhian, We haven’t seen or heard of any issues with Premiere 2025 yet but there are always risks associated with using Beta software. If you’re seeing specific issues/errors let us know and we’ll look into them.

Rokon Rocky

Incorporate in-out selection method too. Like captioneer. You can make sub in in-out selected portion. That is a great option.

Andrew Hicks

Hi Rokon, This feature is actually in our current beta. It should be released soon.

Michael Broke

Just installed a trial version to see what's the fuss is all about. The plugin UI layout seems to be a bit broken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyU6Yk51GuU

I was able to reproduce this UI behavior on another Windows computer with a different version number of the host application.

UPD: turns out you need to make sure that cephtmlengine.exe is not blocked by your firewall when you launch SubMachine for the first time, otherwise its UI will be broken.

Andrew Hicks

Hi Michael, That is definitely odd. Can you share any more info on the environments? Were they connected to the internet? Was the UI the same when reopening SubMachine? You can contact me directly by opening a support ticket: https://aescripts.com/contact/?direct=1

In both cases, I was using Windows 10, just with different Premiere versions - 2024.1 on one machine and 2022.0 on the other. I had most applications restricted from internet access via firewall rules, only allowing essential apps like browsers and messaging.

The UI issue was persistent even after relaunching Premiere or the plugin panel multiple times. What fixed it was temporarily allowing internet access for cephtmlengine.exe and launching the plugin panel again - after that, the UI corrected itself and stayed working properly even when I disabled internet access for cephtmlengine.exe again. I was able to replicate this exact behavior on the other computer as well.

It seems like the plugin needs internet access during its first launch to properly set up the UI. Let me know if you need any other info!

Andrew Hicks

Interesting. Thanks for that. I'll look into how I can rectify that behaviour.

Myron Stewart

Any chance we could get some hotkeys for submachine? Sub Machine is a great product, but all the clicking back and forth can get tiresome.

Andrew Hicks

Hi Myron,
It's something we're looking into. 

When in your workflow are you finding yourself clicking back and forth?

Hello Andrew. Basically as I'm going through an I'm using the "Split and Join". I have to select what I want to merge and then click the button on the panel. I want to be able to assign a macro to my LoupeDeck for faster edits as well as other options for SubMachine. I also tend to use the "Sync All" a lot as I am tweaking things. Hot keys would cut my time in half or more as I would be able to fly through animations.

Andrew Hicks

What's causing the need to repeatedly split and join? 

As for sync all, have you looked at customising or creating your own mogrts? This should remove the need to sync at all.

Josiah Lewis

Hey! I have been messing around with the trial, and am trying to get text that overflows onto a third line when it is re-sized. I got this to work with the "Animator" Mogrt, but it seems there is no way to left or right justify text on any of the Mogrts provided.

Can you explain how to left or right justify text after submachine has generated it?
