You will need to generate a new mph.license file if you plan to use the MP Host on another computer, but you don’t need to enter the controller serial again.
To generate a new mph license for another computer you need to upload the new hardware.id file and download the mph.license file. Then place the mph.license in the ~/MP/Host folder.
DO NOT USE HARDWARE.ID or MPH.LICENSE FILES FROM OTHER COMPUTERS.
YOU NEED TO RUN THE MP HOST TO GENERATE NEW ONES.Open your DAW and load the Single FX or Instrument MP Host plugin.
Open the plugin and click on the Controller icon button to open the MP Host window on the MP controller.
Right click on the main black area of the big window
Select Presets > Show Presets Folder and it will open the MP/Host folder. See here
In that folder you will find the hardware.id file. Note that on the new computer if the hardware.id and mph.license are present, ie have been copied via time machine or hard drive transfer) delete the hardware.id and mph.license files
Then run the MPH plugin in the DAW to generate a new hardware.id file. (remove and reload the MP Host plugin in the DAW if it is already loaded)
Then login in your account and upload the new hardware.id to the server to get the new mph.license
For every new computer you need to upload the new hardware.id file generated when you run the MP Host plugin the first time and then download the mph.license file.
There is a limit on the activation server for 5 different computers. If you need activation for more computers, please send us an email at [email protected].
If you see the message “License not found, Controller Not connected” see here.
