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).


Vibrant, Profound, Eternal

CHROMA personifies the ageless beauty of the piano.

Painstakingly recorded from a world class Yamaha C3, it fully captures the sonic exuberance of the ideal piano sound.

It is not only the perfect recreation of the acoustic properties, but also a full exploration of the instrument.

From the profundity of the single note, to mallets, pads, and e-bow, able to create rich and inspiring soundscapes, Chroma is more than a piano, it is the experience of the piano itself.


  • The new Sonuscore flagship piano
  • 4 freely adjustable microphone positions
  • Unique core engine that both recreates the piano's original sonority and also creates new and abstract soundscapes
  • Adjustable velocity curve to match the dynamics of nearly every piano keyboard


A Piano for All Times

Chroma is not only a high-quality go-to piano for even your most demanding orchestra needs, it is also an endless source for inspiration.

With over 23 velocity layers and 8 round robins for mechanical sounds, Chroma reflects the real piano sound closer than ever before.

The recordings include palm mutes, brushes, mallets, e-bow, and chains - a full sonic exploration of the Yamaha C3 grand piano.



Choose Your Piano

Though CHROMA was recorded from a top-class Yamaha C3, we developed it to shape the sound to any timbre you might need.

With an adjustable velocity curve, the dynamic response can be matched to any keyboard.

The sound can further be adjusted by attack, decay, delay, density, octavation, detune, sample-start, pan-randomizer and more.


Realism at Your Fingers

With fully adjustable mechanical sounds and 4 freely adjustable microphone positions (A/B, X/Y, ORTF and submic), Chroma will become the choice piano for all your high-quality orchestral needs.


The Main Page

Access the most important parameters like articulation mix, FX and mechanics to shape the sound to your desire.


The Engine Page

Turn the engine on to extend Chroma's capabilities and create and control extraordinary soundscapes.


Preset Browser

Filter and choose from over 90 creative and inspiring presets. Find the perfect style or create and save your own.


The Mix Page

Adjust and mix four different mic positions and set the velocity curve to match your preferred dynamic response.


Multiple Articulations

The piano was completely explored for the recording of this library.

Not only were the notes played the traditional way, but we also used mallets, brushes, palm mutes, e-bow, and chains, all adjustable and combinable in the virtual instrument itself.


Add Mechanical Detail

Live the pure grand piano experience and control mechanical sounds like Note On, Note Off and Pedal for an even more realistic feel.


Create Abstract Soundscapes

Utilizing the different recordings of the piano and its body along with an arsenal of creative effects, Chroma provides for a great deal of inspiring options.

From new and abstract soundscapes, to mimicking the sound of rain, Chroma is not just a piano, but a powerful sound design tool.
