Steinberg-Key USB Key For Steinberg Software Recording & Production Software by Steinberg

Description

The Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser) is actually a tiny computer which stores licenses for Steinberg products, and is ocnnected to a USB port on your computer. All current Steinberg products that use a copy protection device use exactly the same system. The Steinberg copy protection system allows the storage of several licenses on the same Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser). Licenses can also be transferred between Steinberg Keys (USB-eLicensers) with certain limitations.
The USB-eLicenser is the successor of the Steinberg Key. It is a license control device (sometimes called “dongle”) which is needed to use Steinberg's software range. The USB-elicenser is also compatible with software from many other industry-leading companies.

With the Steinberg host applications Cubase 6, Nuendo 5 and WaveLab 6/7, the USB-eLicenser is already included in the product package. The Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser) is included with the following products*:
Cubase 6
Cubase Artist 6
Cubase Essential 4
Nuendo 5
WaveLab 7
WaveLab Studio 6
*This applies only for the full version of the product, as updates do not contain a Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser).
