Hello,
I am a post production professional, currently working on MacGyver for CBS. I purchased Kontakt 5 this weekend specifically so I could use various Foley SFX library's for "walking foley" on the various shows and independent movies I work on. I have no interest, nor use for, the musical instruments that came with the product.
I purchased The Complete Foley Collection, and Edward Ultimate, two foley collections.
My question is this: can I install Kontakt at work so I can use these libraries? I had anticipated being able to "deactivate" the product on my home machine, as I do with various other softwares, but I don't see any option to do so.
I would, of course, uninstall the package from my work computer as soon as the job is complete.
Thanks for your quick attention.
Temporarily Installing Kontakt At Work?

You should have two simultaneous authorisations anyway.

Thanks for the quick replies, folks. I actually DID read the license agreement, and had seen that. Being new to the software, I don't know how difficult it is to actually uninstall / reinstall the software. I've already installed it on my laptop and my desktop at home. I suppose it'll be very rare that I would use my laptop, so maybe the answer is to simply uninstall it from there and use the second at work, temporarily.
I guess nobody outside of the company would actually know if they'd flag me for a third install. Only one would ever be used at a time, of course.
My vote, if anybody at Native Instruments is reading this, is to actually implement an activation / deactivation scheme for freelancers. I know most people hate it, but I actually quite prefer iLok for specifically this reason. Install the software anywhere, and take your iLok from job to job.
