I tried to search and I could not find info on whether or not I could install SONAR X1 on my laptop and on a Stationary computer also?
1 to use on my laptop when I come up with ideas but am not ner my stationary system and then one to record the guitar tracks Vocals, Drums etc.
I see with Toontrack I am allowed 2 authorized computers as losng as I don not use both at the same time lol.
Thanks, I was just talking with a Guitarist friend and I could not recall if SONAR X1 allowed me to have 2 computers authorized simultaneously.

I have no idea how many computers you can use your license on but I do have X1 installed on my desktop and laptop. So that makes at least two. 

cool thanks that was exactly the setup I was thinking of SO I guess I am good to go,

According to the License Agreement I was just looking over (During install), for Sonar X1 Essential... I am only alowed to have this product installed on one computer, without buying additional keys/whatever there called.

It may be different for other versions of Sonar (I doubt it), and there is also is that power-wasting USB key thing that doesn't work on multi-core processors. The USB-key-thing may be different for the License Agreement thing.
 

I asked this a while back;


Cakewalk Response: "You can install our software on up to two machines, as long as you are not running it on both systems simultaneously. If you want to run Cakewalk on more than one machine at a time, or more than one user will be running the software at any given time, you will need to purchase a full license for each machine.
 
Just use the same serial and registration code you were provided originally"


Although I wonder how would they know when two computers were running similtaneously, I would say disconnect both from the internet and they couldnt know?!?!?

Is running 8.5 on one and X1 on the other OK?

did you upgrade one, are they both the same serial numbers?

if different serial numbers then your fine.

If not you probably shouldnt, but Im sure cakewalk wont hunt you down because of it

The licence makes the greater concern that of how many machines the software is used on simulataneously.

If you have one licence then you can only use on one machine. You can however install the software on as many machines as you like as long as you comply with the above. If you want more than one user at the same time then you need that many licences.

This is what we have always enjoyed about Cakewalks licencing and copy protection procedures. They don't hinder the honest user. It is also the reason that Cakewalk users frown so much on pirates.

Indeed. Support the bakers so they don't have to resort to the dreaded dongle!

+1,000,000......


Awful dongles ONLY succeed in annoying JUST legitimate users.... a paradox...!

Cakewalk products registration management is the BEST out there... you do it just once per product, and that's it.... no hassle for the legitimate users.... that is fair....

Thus they deserve respect.......................
