No, you need to buy 2 licenses.

If you're not needing to use both at the same time, you could install on both computers and carry your Ilok back and forth between them.

i have other engineers who come and free lance at my studio thats why i need to licenses so i can be @ home doing some mixing etc. while some is using the studio if i can get 2 licenses can you give me information on obtaining them i went on ilok.com but as i already knew they dnt allow you to have a license on 2 different iloks

Simply buy a second license from Avid, and place it on a second ilok.

That would count as two uses and require two purchases of Pro Tools.

Yes it would

We used to get a "back up license". Did that stop with 9 or 8?

Anyway, it was nice to have for a situation like the op posted.

+1 to bring that "feature" back.

Rubicon

I don't think what you're talking about here is legal from the standpoint of being able to rent out or even loan (doesn't matter whether you charge or not or let your buddies freeload) your PT software which is what it seems like you're talking about.

You can't have the same license on 2 different iLoks but you can have two different licenses on two different iLoks. New PT approx. $700 US; new iLok $40 range or so. Problem solved.

Yeah, right. Can I also have what you're smoking? And now that we're talking can I use my Waves Mercury on three different rooms simultaneously... pretty please...? Why can't I, it cost a lot of money and would be great to use it more...
