    My company is looking to get some plug ins for FCP.

    We have 6 Final Cut station, 3 of which are edit suites, the other 3 are or digizing and support tasks.

    My question is..

    “Are most plugins a 1 licsence 1 machine thing or can we buy 1 set and place them on all the systems?

    Thanks;

    I would check with the vendors to see what kind of multi-seat deal you can negotiate.

    Yeup,

    but won’t work for some plugins.

    Volumetrix & every other FxFactory plugin ‘sniffs’ the network to look for other installs

    [ben] “or just install them on all the machines….”

    That would be a violation of copyright. Many plugin vendors are small mom & pop style operations. I suspect some of them would be willing to cut a site licensing deal if you approached them properly.
