早在一年前，一直在使用 eLicenser 加密系统的著名管弦乐音色厂牌维也纳突然宣称将转移到 iLok 加密系统，
在不知不觉中我们已经逐渐淡忘这事，结果今天居然说来就来了！现在全新 VSL iLok 时代已经到来！
Switching from eLicenser to iLok
Hello there! We’re excited to enter a new era of easy installation procedures, license management,
and using our products with or without a physical USB key!
从 eLicenser 转移到 iLok
来了老铁！ 我们很高兴进入一个简单的安装程序、
许可证管理和使用我们的产品（有或没有物理 USB 加密狗）的新时代！
With our new Vienna Assistant, iLok’s options to activate your licenses in the Cloud or on the iLok Key, and lots of other improvements,
we’ve streamlined the entire process from purchasing to playing so you can focus on what really matters, your music!
通过我们新的 Vienna Assistant、iLok 在云端或 iLok Key 上激活您的许可证的选项以及许多其他改进，
我们简化了从购买到使用的整个过程，因此您可以专注于真正重要的事情，您的音乐！
Your Steps to iLok
We’re offering the conversion to iLok licenses in stages, like boarding a plane in groups, to prevent congestion.
Users who purchase now or have purchased recently will be the first who can deposit their licenses on their iLok account, since all new purchases require iLok authorization.
迈向 iLok 的步骤
我们分阶段提供向 iLok 许可证的转换，例如分组执行，以防止服务器拥堵。
现在购买或最近购买的用户将是第一个可以将其许可证存入其 iLok 帐户的用户，因为所有新购买都使用 iLok 授权。
1. If you don’t have a an iLok account, create one for free.
1. 如果您没有 iLok 帐户，请免费创建一个。
2. Download and install the latest iLok License Manager.
2. 下载并安装最新的 iLok License Manager。
3. Register your iLok User ID at MyVSL.
3. 在 MyVSL 注册您的 iLok 用户 ID。
4. Transfer your licenses to your iLok account by clicking the green “Deposit” button.
4. 单击绿色的“Deposit”按钮，将您的许可证转移到您的 iLok 帐户。
5. Open the iLok License Manager on your computer and activate your licenses.
You can place your licenses either on a physical iLok Key (iLok 2 or iLok 3) or in the iLok Cloud
(except for Free Instruments whose authorization can only be machine-based or key-based).
5. 在您的计算机上打开 iLok License Manager 并激活您的许可证。
您可以将许可证放置在物理 iLok 加密狗（iLok 2 代或 iLok 3代）上或 iLok 云中
（免费音色除外，其授权只能基于机器或基于加密狗）。
6. Use our new Vienna Assistant to download and install your iLok compatible software products and sample libraries.
Instead of downloading, you may also opt to order the Vienna Hard Drive that contains the installer files of all library and software products.
Please note that the iLok compatible software applications will replace the eLicenser versions on your computer.
The library content you will install contains all previous library and preset updates, so you’ll have the most current version on your system.
The Vienna Assistant offers an option to delete your old eLicenser protected libraries (i.e., the sample content) to save space.
6. 使用我们新的 Vienna Assistant 下载并安装您的 iLok 兼容软件产品和音色库。
除了下载之外，您还可以选择订购包含所有音色库和软件产品的安装程序文件的 Vienna 硬盘。
请注意，兼容 iLok 的软件应用程序将取代您计算机上的 eLicenser 版本。
您将安装的音色库内容包含所有以前的库和预设更新，因此您将拥有系统上的最新版本。
Vienna Assistant 提供了一个选项，可以删除受 eLicenser 保护的旧音色库（巨大的采样包）以节省空间。
7. Open and save your existing projects.
After you have installed all iLok compatible software components and sample content, open the project in your DAW.
When your computer is online, the VSL part of your project will be converted in the background. Then save the project again and you’re done.
When your music computer is offline, you need to connect your ViennaKey/USB eLicenser with the corresponding licenses to open and save your project.
The online solution guarantees that you will always be able to convert your projects in years to come, without the need to keep intact physical eLicenser keys.
7. 打开并保存您现有的工程。
安装完所有 iLok 兼容的软件组件和音色库后，在 DAW 中打开项目。
当您的计算机在线时，您的工程的 VSL 轨道将在后台进行转换。然后再次保存项目，您就完成了。
当您的音乐计算机离线时，您需要将您的 ViennaKey/USB eLicenser 与相应的许可证连接以打开和保存您的项目。
在线解决方案保证您将始终能够在未来几年转换您的工程，而无需保留完整的物理 eLicenser 加密狗。
Continued Usage of eLicenser
eLicenser authorized software and library products will keep on working on existing systems.
The Vienna Protection Plan will continue to be active for the rest of its term.
You can use your eLicenser licenses as long as you like,
and as long as the eLicenser Control Center and the latest available eLicenser compatible VSL Software
and libraries are running on your operating system.
关于继续使用 eLicenser
eLicenser 授权软件和音色库将继续在现有系统上运行。
维也纳保护计划将在其剩余任期内继续有效。
只要您愿意，只要 eLicenser 控制中心和最新可用的与 eLicenser 兼容的 VSL 软件和音色库在您的操作系统上运行，
您就可以使用您的 eLicenser 许可证。
However, Steinberg’s eLicenser License Server will not be available forever.
Once it shuts down, license downloads to and license transfers between ViennaKeys/USB eLicensers will no longer be possible.
Even after the eLicenser License Server has gone, you will be able to use our eLicenser authorized products on your computer,
with your eLicenser key plugged in, for as long as it works under your computer’s operating system.
但是，Steinberg 的 eLicenser License Server 在未来会失效关闭。
一旦关闭，ViennaKeys/USB eLicensers 之间的许可证下载和许可证传输将不再可能。
即使在 eLicenser 许可证服务器消失后，只要插入您的 eLicenser 密钥，
您就可以在您的计算机上使用我们的 eLicenser 授权产品，只要它在您计算机的操作系统下能工作即可。
eLicenser compatible content will remain available for download in your MyVSL area
and can be retrieved using the classic Vienna Download Manager.
It can’t be installed using the new Vienna Assistant.
eLicenser 兼容的内容仍可在您的 MyVSL 区域中下载，
并且可以使用经典的 Vienna 下载管理器进行检索。
无法使用新的 Vienna Assistant 进行安装。
Please note that you can’t use both the eLicenser and the iLok version of a software application (e.g., Vienna Synchron Player) on the same computer.
Technically, you could run the eLicenser version of one software (e.g., Vienna Instruments Pro) and the iLok version of another software (e.g., Vienna Synchron Player) on one computer,
but we don’t recommend this in the long run. It’s best to convert all of your products to iLok at your next best opportunity.
请注意，您不能在同一台计算机上同时使用 eLicenser 和 iLok 版本的软件应用程序（例如 Vienna Synchron Player）。
从技术上讲，您可以在一台计算机上运行一个软件的 eLicenser 版本（例如 Vienna Instruments Pro）和另一个软件的 iLok 版本（例如 Vienna Synchron Player），
但从长远来看，我们不建议这样做。最好在下一个最佳机会时将您的所有产品转换为 iLok。
Starting now, when you purchase any of our products only iLok compatible licenses will be issued.
At this point, you can transfer all of your registered VSL licenses to your iLok account by clicking on the green “Deposit” button
and all of your licenses will be available in the iLok License Manager for activation.
Nevertheless, you can still continue to use your eLicenser protected content and software.
At one point you will have to decide if you’re using eLicenser or iLok protection in your working environment,
especially when our legacy software is not compatible anymore with your computer’s operating system, or when you purchase new products that can only be authorized with iLok.
从现在开始，当您购买我们的任何产品时，只会颁发与 iLok 兼容的许可证。
此时，您可以通过单击绿色的“Deposit”按钮将所有注册的 VSL 许可证转移到您的 iLok 帐户，
您的所有许可证都将在 iLok 许可证管理器中进行激活。
尽管如此，您仍然可以继续使用受 eLicenser 保护的内容和软件。
在某一时刻，您必须决定是否在工作环境中使用 eLicenser 或 iLok 保护，
尤其是当我们的旧软件不再与您的计算机操作系统兼容时，或者当您购买只能通过 iLok 授权的新产品时。
Theft and Loss Coverage
With the availability of iLok and its options we’re no longer offering the ViennaKey nor the Vienna Protection Plan.
An active Vienna Protection Plan continues to cover only VSL eLicenser licenses on ViennaKeys/USB eLicensers through the end of its term.
盗窃和损失保险
随着 iLok 及其选项的推出，我们不再提供 ViennaKey 或 Vienna Protection Plan。
有效的 Vienna 保护计划在其期限结束前继续仅涵盖 ViennaKeys/USB eLicenser 上的 VSL eLicenser 许可证。
If you’re using a physical iLok key, we suggest activating iLok’s Theft and Loss Coverage (only available on iLok 3 keys, not on iLok 2 keys), in combination with Zero Downtime.
Both of these are offered through PACE.
如果您使用物理 iLok 加密狗，我们建议结合 Zero Downtime 激活 iLok 的盗窃和丢失保险（仅适用于 iLok 3 加密狗，不适用于 iLok 2 加密狗。
这两个服务都是通过 PACE iLok 提供的。
In the unfortunate case of a broken, lost or stolen iLok key, please place an RMA (Return Merchandize Authorization) directly with iLok.
如果 iLok 密钥损坏、丢失或被盗，请直接向 iLok 提交 RMA（重置授权）。
If you are subscribed to iLok’s Zero Downtime, temporary licenses are immediately deposited so that you can continue working while your RMA order is processed.
In case you don’t have an active Zero Downtime subscription, contact us at
support@vsl.co.at.
Replacements for licenses contained on lost/stolen iLok keys will be available at 25% of the list price (minimum fee: €50).
如果您订阅了 iLok 的 Zero Downtime，则会立即存入临时许可证，以便您可以在处理 RMA 订单时继续工作。
如果您没有有效的 Zero Downtime 订阅，请通过
support@vsl.co.at 联系我们。
丢失/被盗的 iLok 密钥中包含的许可证的更换价格为标价的 25%（最低费用：50 欧元）。
What else is new?
Vienna Instruments Pro, the advanced player, is now free and comes with every purchase of a VI Series product! Vienna Instruments,
the previous free sample player, has been discontinued.
Existing DAW projects based on the Vienna Instruments player will open with the iLok version of the Vienna Instruments Pro player.
这次还更新了什么？
高级播放器 Vienna Instruments Pro 现已免费提供，每次购买 VI 系列产品时均随附！
以前的免费采样播放器 Vienna Instruments 已停产。
基于 Vienna Instruments 播放器的现有 DAW 项目将使用 Vienna Instruments Pro 播放器的 iLok 版本打开。
VI Standard Libraries of Collections and Single Instruments have been discontinued.
Only VI Full Libraries are available, at lower prices! Users of registered VI Standard Libraries will always be able to upgrade to the VI Full Libraries.
Single Instruments can now be found in the corresponding collections in your Vienna Assistant, to provide a better overview.
