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).


Ruby is the first release of our Boutique Drums series. We consulted with our drummer Brian Scoggin (Casting Crowns) who curated a kit comprised of truly boutique drum pieces for this release. We also chose to record at Hey Hey Studios in Griffin, Georgia for its outstanding acoustics and engineering; a remarkable space providing a tasteful balance of both room and character.

Each of the eight mixes was created from scratch using an arsenal of processing tools, both hardware, and software. We chose to develop the presets outside of Kontakt to deliver what we felt were precision mixes with the right amount of punch, balance, and vibe while providing just enough headroom to treat well to additional processing.

Under the hood, Ruby also alternates between two different sets of hi-hat/ride multi-samples; depending on how quickly you hit successive notes for the given articulation. The initial hit triggers the isolated sample while subsequent hits trigger repetition samples.

We’ve included five different hi-hat states of multi-samples and live eighth-note grooves that automatically lock to your DAW’s tempo: tight, normal, slight-open, mid-open, and all-open; grooves recorded at 90/120/140 BPM.

We've also developed what we consider to be a first - crossfadeable hi-hat grooves with release triggers. With the mod wheel down, it’ll play the loop at it’s tightest hi-hat state. As you push the mod wheel up, the hi-hat opens up. It’s pretty dang cool.
