License Activation
When you open MNodes for the first time (either in your DAW or standalone), it will ask for your credentials:
- Enter the email associated with your purchase
- Enter the serial number you received
That's it. Once activated, MNodes will never ask for your email or serial again unless you release the license slot or format your computer (which erases the registration and requires re-entering your credentials).
Key License Details
| Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
| Simultaneous installs | Up to 3 computers at the same time |
| Offline use | Fully supported:no internet required after activation |
| Time limit | None:your license is permanent with no expiration |
| Re-activation | Only needed if you release a slot or format your computer |
Managing Your Licenses
You can manage your license slots in two ways:
- From MNodes: Go to Settings → License and release a license slot to free it for another computer
- From your account: Go to marionietoworld.com, log into your account, and manage or deactivate licenses from one computer to transfer to another
This is useful when you get a new computer:simply release the slot on the old machine (or from your online account) and activate on the new one.
