CHAPTER 1: INSTALLING GVI

IMPORTANT:

Install the GVI software before inserting your eLicenser for the first time.

License Control Center

The GVI software uses a USB based eLicenser for license management. After

installation, the eLicenser must be attached to the system that is running

the GVI software. This eLicenser allows a user to install and run the GVI

software on multiple systems without requiring any further interaction

with the manufacturer by physically moving the eLicenser from system to

system.

An eLicenser must contain a GVI license to run the GVI software. Depending

on how the software and the eLicenser were acquired, the license may

be currently activated on the eLicenser or the user may be required to

download the license onto the eLicenser.

The GVI license management technology is provided by Syncrosoft

(www.syncrosoft.com), and is the same technology used by popular

workstations like Steinberg’s Cubase SX and Nuendo. Because of the

commonality of this copy protection it is possible to transfer your Syncrosoft

based licenses from one eLicenser to another. For example, if you already

have a Cubase SX eLicenser, it is possible to transfer the GVI license from

the original GVI eLicenser onto the Cubase SX eLicenser, and vice versa. This

helps reduce the number of USB devices connected to your system.
