Transfering keys and 5.1 software

[fidox]

Hi !

I want to know, how it is , if anytime in future (i have one pulsar 2 card in my mind) with transfering keys to new card and software 5.1.
Currently i have Luna II card (with all keys and software 5.1 registered) and 2 X Pulsar 2 XTC.
So, if i want to add another Pulsar 2 card, how it is.
Is it possible to transfer keys from Luna II to Pulsar 2 and if then i can install latest 5.1 version on Pulsar 2 or i need to purchase 5.1 software again ?

and also , does Pulsar 2 has S/P-DIF I/O connection , similar to Luna II or just ADAT ?

Thanks for any kind of information ,
Best regards,
Matej

v5.1 keys are only transferable if the old card is broken and you return it to SC. you will need to repurchase v5.1. i can arrange a small discount if you write me at support. the rest of the keys can be transferred for 98euro. the old card still keeps it's keys.

Oh , thanks Gary.
It's little too much money at the moment for gaining 3 more dsp's

[garyb]

sure. if you just add the Pulsar2 to the Luna card, everything will still work but you'll gain 6 dsps....

yea, but i already have 2 x Pulsar 2 XTC and maximum 3 pci slots

maybe one day for my other computer, where i have now 3 x Luna II cards and both computers synced together

[garyb]

got it.
sorry i was no help.

[fidox]

yes you were, i've got all the information !

[fidox]

Oh, i forgot.

Ok, so for example:
if i purchase new 5.1 software for pulsar II , what's then with keys for 3rd party plugins (das and others)....

[garyb]

sure, but the 3rd party and optional keys will be for the same cards as they were before.
