The Basics

iLok is a copy protection method used by many of our brands.

It has 3 types of activations, iLok USB, iLok Machine, and iLok Cloud.

Different brands/products will offer different iLok methods. iLok USB is always an option, but the availability of iLok Cloud and iLok Machine methods is at the discretion of the software developer.


iLok Account

For all iLok protected products, you will need an iLok account. You can create one for free here: ilok.com/#!registration


iLok License Manager

To manage your iLok licenses, there is a dedicated app called iLok License Manager. This app is used to register, activate, and move your licenses between locations.

You can download the latest installers from the iLok website: ilok.com/#!home


iLok USB Key

iLok USB

This activation is stored on an iLok 2 or 3 USB key.

It is the best option for portability, if you frequently move between multiple machines, and offline use.


iLok Machine ID

Machine ID

This activation is stored locally on your computer.

While this is a convenient way to work offline, and does not require the additional cost of an iLok USB, there is the risk of a license being lost in the case of a drive failure.

This option also requires extra care when you upgrade to a new computer, the license(s) must be deactivated on your old machine first to ensure you do not lose them.


iLok Cloud

iLok Cloud

This activation is based online, and requires a "cloud session" using the iLok License Manager.

It requires an active internet connection for the entire time you use the plugin(s).

Ultra Real-sounding / Dark-Powered Virtual Electric Guitar - The true METAL sound of ESP Alexi Blacky with EMG humbucker pickups.

Includes over 19GB, approx. 26,000 samples


Incredible real-time playability - V-Metal SPM (Super Performance Multi)

V-METAL SPM enables you to access various playing techniques instantly without stopping your performance and create convincing guitar tracks very easily and quickly.

Single note, Sampled real 2-strings chords (minor 3rd, major 3rd, 4th, flat 5th, 5th, #5th, 6th, octave) Sampled real chords (add9, sus4, power chord), Other special sampled chords (‘Rush chords’) Unison bend, Double bend, Realtime Hammer-on & Pull-off, Realtime Legato Slide, Vibrato, Trill, Picking Tremolo, Mute & picking noise, Cricket, Gliss down, Pinch Harmonics, Natural Harmonics, Fret noise, Pick stop noise, Bridge mute noise, Finger Release noise, Position change noise, Whammy bar, Special FX, noises, Feedback, etc.

You can play ultra realistic electric guitar performance in real-time!


Fretboard Monitor

SPM automatically selects a proper string/fret position depending on the situation. You can also change the string manually by key switches. The Fretboard Monitor visualizes the current fret position/playing technique you are playing.


Cricket

'Cricket' is a guitar playing technique that Metal / Rock guitarists frequently use on solos. By hitting the whammy bar, the tremolo unit vibrates very fast and it produces a very cool ‘crying’ sound like a cricket (insect).


Feedback

In actual guitar performance, you get feedback sound when a heavily distorted tone is played in front of (or a certain position from) the amplifier. V-METAL reproduces the feedback sound. The pitch and fade time of feedback can be changed.


Real Chords

The extensive number of the ‘real’ chord samples makes your guitar tracks very convincing. minor 3rd, major 3rd, 4th, flat 5th, 5th, #5th, 6th, octave add9, sus4, major 3rd vibrato with/without pinch harmonics, power chords (besides 5th-dyad chord), other special chords (= so-called ‘Rush chords’), etc. Guitar chord sound that is emulated using single note samples does not sound real. V-METAL includes the huge number of ‘real’ recorded (in other words, ‘pre-recorded’ or ‘pre-played’) chord samples. Each chord instrument can be used as an SPM instrument and you can instantly access the various types of guitar chords. Prominy’s guitar libraries are the only ones that include such a huge number of the ‘real’ chord samples.


Double Tracking

'Double-Tracking' is a technique that is frequently used in recording guitar tracks. It gives the guitar track a nice, wide-spread stereo image and thickness. With V-METAL, you can reproduce it very easily just by loading the double-tracking instruments. No identical samples are played simultaneously on both channels. You don't need a stereo delay or tweaking your midi data to emulate the double-tracking.


Auto Stroke Detection

With SPM's Auto Stroke Detection feature, SPM automatically detects the current beat position and identify proper stroke direction (down or up). There are several stroke detection modes and you can also control stroke direction manually.


Assignable Key Switch

All the SPM instruments have Assignable Key Switch feature which enables you to assign any key switches to each SPM instrument. You can combine any SPM instruments to SPM multi as needed and assign key switches, and create your own SPM setting.


Low-note samples included

The guitar is tuned to 'drop C', that is the most popular tuning among Metal / Rock guitarists. V-METAL covers the lower notes (low C – low D#) and is suitable for a wide range of musical genres; Modern Metal, Death Metal, Nu Metal, Metalcore, Rock, Pop, and so on.


Realtime Legato Slide

With V-METAL’s Realtime Legato Slide feature using ‘real’ legato samples, you are able to get perfectly real expressions of the human finger’s legato slide that cannot be reproduced with a slide emulation by changing pitch. Realtime Legato Slide is available with the instruments; single note, minor 3rd, major 3rd, 4th, flat 5th, 5th, #5th, 6th, octave, add9, sus4, power chord.


Direct signal from the guitar

The samples were recorded directly from the guitar and completely dry. You can make your own guitar sound so it suits the music genre you're working with by adding your favorite amp simulator. (Amp simulator is not included in the product.)


Picking and various noises

Picking noises and various noises (fret noise, pick stop noise, bridge mute noise, finger release noise, position change noise, etc.) made while playing the guitar are very important characteristics that identify a live guitar recording. That is why we took great care in capturing many variations of noises. Adding these noises will make your guitar tracks sound natural.


NKS (Native Kontrol Standard) ready 

Hummingbird officially supports NKS (Native Kontrol Standard) that allows for intuitive and seamless interaction between Hummingbird and KOMPLETE KONTROL and MASCHINE hardware. You can control major parameters via KOMPLETE KONTROL S series keyboard / Maschine hardware and software. KOMPLETE KONTROL S series keyboard’s Light Guide shows available key switches, playable key ranges of each articulation.
