9. "Invalid mph.license" message on the Mac

Modified on Tue, 20 Aug at 1:17 PM

If you get a message on the left bottom corner of the MP Host that the license is invalid it means that the mph.license file does not match the hardware of the computer you are using.

If you have copied the mph.license file from another computer delete both the mph.license and hardware.id files and run the MP Host in the DAW to create a new one.

Unload any instances of the MP Host and then load one MP Host in the DAW to create the hardware.id file.


Then, log on your account (sent via email when you purchased the MP Controller) and upload the hardware.id file to generate a new mph.license.

The hardware.id and mph.license files should have these 2 exact names.


You can get to the MP/Host folder using the right click menu. See here
