  • usb switcher for elicencer Vienna key: possible?

     Hello,

    Evething is in the title but some explication: It's not to have several licences, I only want to use one licence.But :

    -I have two computers with almost all Vsl products with several usb Vienna key..And have the sound data copied on the two computers.

    - As in the future and sometimes allready now: as I can use only one computer because of the 64bit and the memory , I don't want to light two computers for nothing and want to be a little more green ecologic for saving electric environment.

    So i want a solution to not have to unplug my vienna Key  from computer A and to plug it on the other computer B when I need more memory and performance

    So  i search  this solution to share the vienna key via a usb switcher : somebody tried it?

    best regards

     I've never tried a switcher, but as long as you get a manual switcher, I see no reason why it would not work. An automatic switcher needs driver software and that may cause problems with the eLicencer driver,  but a dedicated manual one should be OK, and these are only about £5, it's probably worth the gamble that it will be OK.
