Steinberg Key - USB Software License Control Device - Mac and Windows

The Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser) is a copy protection unit (sometimes called "dongle") which is needed to use Steinberg's software range. With the host applications Cubase 5, Nuendo 4 and WaveLab 6, the Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser) is already included in the product package. The Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser) is also required to run Steinberg VST instruments, but is not included in the product boxes and must be purchased separately if no Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser) is already present on the system.

The Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser) comes with a CD-ROM containing informative videos and detailed PDF documents about the entire Steinberg product range.

One copy protection device for all Steinberg licenses Detailed information to the complete Steinberg product range

The Steinberg Key (USB-eLicenser) is actually a tiny computer which stores licenses for Steinberg products, and is connected 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. This can be very useful, for example in the unlikely event of a Steinberg customer wishing to sell a product.
