What do you get when you buy the Benesh Notation Editor?
The Benesh Notation Editor comes on a CD-ROM with a dongle.

The CD-ROM contains a Read Me document that gives instructions on how to load the Editor and comprehensive Help Files that include a Tutorial section to help you learn how to use the program. You can access these from within the Editor or print them out for reference.

The dongle is a security device. It acts as a key that ensures that the Editor can only be used on the computer to which it is attached.

Can I use the Benesh Notation Editor on more than one computer?
Yes, in these two cases only:

  • ( i) you can load the Benesh Notation Editor onto your home computer and your work computer but the program will only function when your edition specific dongle is fitted into the USB port at the back of whichever of these two computers you are using.
  • (ii) Site licenses are available for schools, colleges and universities.
