Licensing and the Survey

I am not sweeping it aside, but I cannot realistically change it. Products that use the Soft-eLicenser can only be used on a single computer: this is true whether the product in question is Dorico, HALion, or any of the others. This decision is, as the saying goes, above my pay-grade, and has been discussed here ad nauseam.

As I have said many times before, Steinberg does not want licensing to be an obstacle to using the software for any legitimate customer. You can expect that in the future, the way in which our software products are licensed will change. Until there is something concrete to say, however, it would be imprudent of me to speculate about what those changes will be or when they will arrive.

In the meantime, if you need to move Dorico from one computer to another, you can either put your Dorico license onto a USB-eLicenser, or you can use the self-service “reactivation” workflow possible via your MySteinberg account.
