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).


Historic Recording Studios

13 snare drums, seven sets of toms, seven kicks, and a wide assortment of different cymbals – all sampled in extreme detail and showcasing the incredible sonic qualities of two New York City landmark studios.


The New York Studios Vol.2 SDX was recorded by engineers Neil Dorfsman and Pat Thrall together with drummer Nir Z.

It contains unique drums sampled in two of the most heralded drum rooms and notable New York studios ever: the Allaire Studios and The Hit Factory.

These two landmark facilities have hosted the who’s who of popular music for decades - anything from David Bowie to Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, The Rolling Stones, and Paul Simon.

Since the recording of these sound libraries, however, both studios have tragically closed their doors to the public and thus, the legacy of their signature sound lives through their respective body of work, but now also vicariously through these very drum recordings.

The New York Studios Vol.2 SDX is divided into two separate libraries, one for each studio.

In total, it comes with 13 snare drums, seven sets of toms, seven kicks, and a wide assortment of different cymbals – all sampled in extreme detail and showcasing the incredible sonic qualities of these two rooms.

The room at Allaire Studios was ambient, reverberant, and almost church-like in its construction.

The dense wooden walls and ceiling produce a warm and natural reverb that give the drums a clear character without being too loud or taking over.

The room at The Hit Factory also had a large, wooden, and meticulously crafted room, producing a very rich and characteristic natural reverb.


The New York Studios Vol.2 SDX presents the essence of big drums recorded in big, sonically perfect rooms.

Still, with Superior Drummer's built-in sound-shaping tools, you have the power to sculpt the sound you always heard in your head.

Ambient, tight, slick, loud, dampened – the canvas is blank. Start creating.
