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).


More than a Great-Sounding EQ

SplitEQ is a groundbreaking EQ that offers a new approach to corrective and creative audio equalization.

It excels at Enhancing, Repairing, Rebalancing, and Widening any musical source or audio signal.

SplitEQ is both a surgical tool for fixing particularly nasty problems and a creative tool that opens up exciting new musical possibilities. More than just an EQ - It's a new and better tool.

At first glance, it's a parametric EQ with 8 bands of precise musical filters.

What's new and different is Eventide's powerful Structural Split engine divides the incoming audio into separate Transient and Tonal streams that feed the 8 bands of "Split" parametric EQ.

This approach is musically useful and makes common EQ problems easy to solve, even in a complex mix.

  • Want to soften the transients? Use the master Transient Gain slider.
  • Remove plosives or de-ess? EQ only the Transient.
  • Reduce snare ring? Put a filter on the Tonal mids.

By applying EQ to Transient and Tonal separately, you can fix many of the problems normally attempted by complex combinations of EQ, compression, transient designers, de-essers, multi-band compression, spatial processors, or dynamic EQ.

Simplify and declutter your workflow, get better results and create new sounds.


By Musicians For Musicians

SplitEQ reduces the distance between what you want to do and how you actually do it, and with fewer tradeoffs of other EQs.

A low-shelf boost on a kick drum will yield muddiness rather than delicious oomph.

A low cut on a low male vocal removes plosives but at the expense of low-end richness.

SplitEQ gives you the surgical control to address the problematic part of a sound without losing the magic and without the need for additional tools.

SplitEQ is not just a corrective tool, it is also a new type of creative tool for taking your mixes to new heights through its independent L/R and Mid-Side panning.

With SplitEQ every source is split into a pair of sonically distinct elements offering your music, mixes, and audio signals an extraordinary new level of musicality.


X-Ray Vision

With SplitEQ you can hear and even see your sound in new ways.

Our Structural approach mimics the way in which we interpret sound and our spectrum display offers an inside look into what you’re hearing.

Solo only the transients, or a single band, or only the transients on a single band.

Use the real-time spectrum analyzer to track down problematic resonances or transients by displaying the tonal and transient streams separately.

SplitEQ adds a new dimension to your trouble-shooting toolkit.


Prepared for Repair

Our team took all the knowledge they had about recording, threw it out the window, then headed down to the studio to lay down some badly recorded tracks.

Double-headed kick drum with no port? Check.

Ill-advised mic placement on snare? Check.

Why? To prove that SplitEQ works well on a wide range of sonically challenged material.

We've created an entire folder of presets for those less-than-perfect recordings.


Presets

SplitEQ comes with a Factory Library of over 150 presets to solve many of today’s standard corrective and complex mixing problems in a cleaner and faster way.

The presets are designed to Enhance, Repair, Rebalance and Widen various instruments including drums, vocals, guitar, and more.

A/B comparison and Undo/Redo make it easy to explore ideas without losing where you started.

Whether you're working on individual tracks, a full mix, or cleaning up a two-track loop, you'll find SplitEQ to be an inspiring and powerful tool that allows you to approach material in a new, musical, and sonically meaningful way.


Structural Split

The beating heart of SplitEQ. SplitEQ analyzes the incoming audio and separates it into its respective Transient (Ex. noise, pops, consonants, mic plosives, vocal sibilance, attacks, clicks, plucks, pick noise, piano hammers, kick-drum beaters) and Tonal (Ex. sustained notes, harmonics, pitched, smooth, vowels, tone, ambiance, kick-drum shell, cymbal wash, air, rumble, AC hum, feedback) elements.


8-Band Parametric EQ

SplitEQ's filters are state-of-the-art, pristine, and musical.

The User Interface has been designed to streamline workflow.

Add sheen to vocals without boosting sibilance or harshness.

Enhance acoustic guitar harmonics while reducing string buzz.


Stereo Imaging

Continuous L/R or Mid/Side panning of the Transient and Tonal components for each of the eight bands.


Graphical Display

High-res, real-time, spectrum analysis of audio components with multiple options for monitoring or comparison.

SplitEQ also features Peak and RMS metering.


Split Controls

Fine-tune the Split algorithm to tease out the exact Transient or Tonal parts of your sounds.


Applications

Enhance: With independent control of the Tonal and Transient elements of an instrument, SplitEQ can be used to deliver punch, detail, sheen, breathiness, diction, tightness, thump, and pluck.

Repair: A unique audio repair and restoration tool, SplitEQ allows you to surgically tune the Transient and Tonal response independently.

Remove a kick drum’s boom without losing its thump.

Rebalance: SplitEQ allows versatile track placement in a mix.

Easily perform multiple tasks not possible with any other EQ, like softening electric guitar strums while boosting cab reverb.

Widen: SplitEQ allows for precise multi-band stereo image manipulation of the Tonal and Transient elements of each frequency band.

L/R and Mid/Side panning are supported.

Spatialize a beat like never before.
