Yes. Avid does provide site licenses and Pace does offer a server solution but it's not what you think. This doesn't mean that any Pro Tools license can be activated via a network. Further, the server license from Pace currently costs around $500 and you'd have to buy a multi-seat Pro Tools license from Avid. This is meant for schools, studios, broadcast facilities rather than people who simply don't wish to use an iLok key. best, slau
