Of course I know that copying the EXS CD isn't exactly legal (at least from what the manual says) but I think that by german law you are allowed to have one security copy - and that's exactly what I've been doing because my original CD allready doesn't look too pretty anymore, there's allready quite some scratches on it and I don't want to take the risk of one day finding myself with a non-working CD, having to wait for a new one, eventually not being able to use the EXS (which in the meantime became my master sound modul) for a few days. However, I don't know about the legal situation when it comes to using the EXS on two different machines, but in this case we should compare it to some hardware synth module. I mean, whenever you do some production at your place and it's afterwards required to continue working in another studio but at the same time you want to reproduce a certain sound that you used, you'd take your hardware module with you, wouldn't you? So I think there should be no problem with the EXS being installed temporarily on another machine - otherwise it simply wouldn't cope up with hardware equivalents in terms of practical usefulness. Of course you're still not allowed to use the EXS on two different machines simultaneously. Regards, Sascha
