Not a big fan of the whole dongle thing. Something I've never been sure of with the Syncrosoft variety... do you need mulitples of them. I have one for Nuendo, the Korg Legacy collection etc. Do I need the seperate syncrosoft dongle for the Jupietr 8V or can the license be installed on one of my other syncrosoft keys (like using an iLok key)?
Best,

All SyncroSoft compatible licenses can be transferred to one single key.

Hi Kenneth,
Yes, it is really quite easy to transfer all of your licenses over to one key and then just carry them on one key. It takes a little bit of time "playing around" on the syncro-site but once you've done it, it becomes a breeze.
Give it a try

Just my 2-cents worth....Pardon if I'm addressing the obvious, but, with either iLok or Syncrosoft, if you put all your eggs in one basket and the basket goes missing, recovery is daunting at best and in several cases impossible. I use a couple of powered hubs with individual dongles for each synth. When I work on a laptop I pre-plan which synths I'm going to use so that I don't run out of ports and take only those dongles with me. Granted, it cuts down on experimental creativity, but, by keeping each dongle 'dedicated', there's less possibility of losing access to an entire collection.
Peace,
Dave
