Sonar Pro Licence - can 1 install Sonar Pro on 2 computers simultaneously with 1 licence

Hi
Having trouble finding a simple answer to the following Q.
I have 1 license for Sonar Pro.
I am the only user.
I have it installed on 1 PC now.
I'd like to also install it on my Laptop if allowed.
I would never open & run the program on both computers exactly at the same time.
It would be actually open & running only on 1 of these 2 computers at any one time.
So 1 day I might use it on my PC and another day I might use it on my laptop to do some recording at band practice.
No one else would use it.
Can I install it on 2 computers as described above without paying any extra fees - yes/no
thanks :)

    I've installed on my desktop and laptop at the same time, and it works.

    A deep chesty bawl echoes from rimrock to rimrock, rolls down the mountain, and fades into the far blackness of the night. It is an outburst of wild defiant sorrow, and of contempt for all the adversities of the world. - Aldo Leopold

    No problem. :) You can find the official answer on this page...
    https://www.cakewalk.com/Register/FAQ
     
    Down the page you'll see the following text, which gives you the exact official answer to the question you were asking...
     
    ---------------------
    "Does this limit the number of times I can install my Cakewalk product?
    You can uninstall and re-install the software on your computer without having to worry about re-registering or being locked out of the software.
    Per the End User License Agreement, your purchase of the software grants you the nonexclusive license to have one person use the software on one personal computer at a time. If you want to use the product on more than one personal computer at a time, or if you want to network the product, you must obtain separate licenses from Cakewalk.
    If you have a second computer that you use on occasion, such as a personal laptop you use when away from your desktop, you may install the product on to the additional computer. You do not need to register the product again, simply use the same registration code tied to your account that has been generated for your unique serial number. Note that per the EULA, the software must only be running on one computer at a time unless you have purchased an additional license."
