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).


Axe Machina is a powerful multi-sampled virtual electric guitar library designed for unleashing pure metal destruction.

Craig Peters sampled his custom Kiesel Aries multi-scaled 7 string guitar, tuned to A Standard.

This instrument features 24 frets, a swamp ash body, birdseye maple neck, Guitarmory Polaris pickups with D'Addario XL 10-64 gauge strings.

The swamp ash body has a unique style and flavor, along with a robust natural tone and resonance.


We sampled single note and power chord sustains with palm mute variations.

You'll also find an assortment of SFX, like pinch harmonics, mutes, pick scrapes with slow, med and long, fret noise, chokes, rakes, and slides.

Dial in your dream tone by sending our pure D.I. signal through your favorite amp simulator plugins, or use our custom reamped tone, crafted with Neural DSP software.

Our flexible GUI gives you access to real-time articulation selection and performance features, key-switch and mapping options, arpeggiator, auto-strummer, sequencer, and full FX rack, all packed into an intuitive and customizable user interface.



Contents

We've packed the user interface with powerful sound-shaping and performance controls to give you complete flexibility combined with playability.

The Main presets contain every sample in the library and a host of powerful performance features.

The Lite presets feature fewer round-robins for situations where less RAM usage is important.

The DI presets feature the pure guitar tone, recorded directly in with no preamp or other sound-coloring hardware in between, giving you the pure guitar tone, ready to reamp with the built-in effects or any other way you choose.

The Amped presets feature a custom tone carefully dialed in by Craig Peters, giving you a modern hi-gain tone right out of the box.

In the standard presets, you have access to individual strings, giving you full control over the available range for each string, including overlapping notes.

The Simple variations of the preset omit this option and include a standard cross-over point for each string going up the scale.

The interface is rounded-out by our modular FX rack panel, with 27 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 8 available slots, in any order that you wish.

You'll find classic phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more.

The Reverb effect includes our favorite convolution reverb impulse responses, including 99 different rooms, halls, chambers and outdoor environments, plus another 40 custom FX impulses to radically transform the sound and open up whole new worlds of musical possibility.

We've added a great bank of FX rack chain factory presets to get you started!



Kontakt Format

This library is designed for the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 6.2.2 or later. Kontakt is an industry-standard advanced virtual instrument software platform. You can view screenshots of this library's custom graphical user interface in the image gallery above. This library is packed with features to provide you a wide range of sound shaping parameter controls, each one totally automation-ready in your host environment or Kontakt's stand-alone mode.

This is a standard Kontakt open-format library, so the free Kontakt Player does not fully support it and can only run it in a limited "demo mode". However, the sample directories are unlocked so you can use them in other wav-compatible software, sampler and synth formats. The special Libraries tab doesn't support this open-format Kontakt library, but you can use the standard File browser tab and import this library into the Kontakt Quickload window for easy loading and navigation.
