Q-SYS Licenses – Frequently Asked FAQ’s

As you know, the last few years have brought several software licenses from Q-SYS. These licenses have given users the ability to add multiple features and functions to existing hardware, without requiring new equipment. The beauty of Q-SYS, right?

There are two types of licenses, a scaling license, and a feature license. Scaling licenses have been created to add processing to an existing Core product. In other words, scaling up the processing of the Core. Feature licenses were designed to add a specific feature to a product. Most of the feature licenses are specific to a Core, but you’ll notice that they become available to peripherals as well. The first example is the Q-SYS AV Bridging License that adds a full AV bridge to the USB-C port on the TSC-70-G3 or TSC-101-G3. So cool!
