Marina Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) New SpectraLayers 10 was released a couple of hours ago. It’s probably something to do with it. Edited June 22, 2023 by Marina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpectraLayers 10 uses the Steinberg Activation Manager, not eLicenser Control though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. eLCC is still maintain, bug fixed, etc. so that people with dongled licenses can reliably access their software. All new releases from Steinberg are Steinberg Licensing-only.

There are still many SL 6/7/8 users as seen on Steinberg forums. SL is SAM compatible since version 9. eLCC is also required while upgrading SL 6/7/8 to 10, so it kind of looks more than coincidence that an eLCC update appears on the very same day of the SL 10 release.

The eLCC update is actually a couple of days old. There are very frequent updates to eLCC and this is the 4th this year. They are all basically database updates, the licensing code doesn't change. Looks like this last database change was to amend the status of licences that have been upgraded to SAM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they add new code. What new code is "needed." It is maintained only to allow those users to access their licenses, as they are pivoting away to Steinberg Licensing. It worked before, why do they need to add anything new to it other than support for migrating licenses over from eLCC to Steinberg Licensing and making sure it works properly as host platforms update/upgrade? "New Code" isn't the only way to maintain a product. That's reality, not an opinion. Lol. Edited June 23, 2023 by iNate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
