Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31439, member: 636"] Steinberg plans to shut down their old eLicenser system next year on May 20, 2025. People who already use the new Steinberg Licenser enjoy much easier ways to activate their music software. The updated system lets you run your programs on three different computers at once without needing the USB stick anymore. Many users started moving to this better ID-based setup back in 2022. Steinberg has offered several paths to help everyone switch their products smoothly. After the May shutdown date, you can still update your older eLicenser-based programs if you have registered your USB key properly. Your existing software will keep working just fine as long as you have valid licenses stored on either your physical USB-eLicenser or digital Soft-eLicenser. The company made sure to tell customers about these changes through many different channels. Steinberg spent years developing this new license system that works better for everyone. According to Managing Director Clyde Sendke, they've finished rolling out the improved system. The company believes this change makes life easier for musicians and producers. You'll spend less time dealing with license problems and more time making music. The smooth transition period gave everyone plenty of time to adjust to the new method. Steinberg listened to customer feedback during this multi-year process. They designed the replacement system based on what users actually wanted and needed. Musicians appreciate not carrying USB dongles between studios anymore. The risk of losing those small devices caused stress for many professionals. With three computer activations, you can have your studio computer, laptop, and backup machine all ready to go. Producers frequently work across multiple locations in today's music world. This flexibility matches how creative people actually use their tools in real life. Steinberg created detailed guides explaining how to move your licenses over. Their support team answers questions from anyone confused about the process. The company maintains backwards compatibility for people who need more time to change. They understand that some studios have complex setups that require careful planning. Remember that May 2025 date if you still use any programs with the old system. [/QUOTE]
