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).


Mix & Match Magic

A massive collection of drums that zooms in on the two centerpieces in any mix: kicks and snares.

Regardless of genre or style, arguably any engineer would agree: the kick and the snare are irrevocably the two biggest focal points of not only the rhythm section but also the entire mix.

The Kicks & Snares EZX zooms in on delivering exactly that: kicks and snares.

An overwhelming amount of them, we might add - in total 74 multi-sampled and never-before-released instruments recorded in eight different top studios in Australia and the UK.

Factoring in the wide range of alternative tunings and recorded configurations, you'll have around 130 unique kick and snare voices at your disposal.

What differentiates this EZX even more from earlier ones is that each kick and snare position has four extra channels featuring individually processed versions: 'Sub', 'Skin Lo', 'Skin Hi', and 'Club/Stick'.

This will enable you to infinitely tweak and find your personal blends for each instrument.

In addition, the Kicks & Snares EZX comes with close to 100 unique kit presets covering anything from traditional/organic mixes to those involving elaborate sound design.

Also, one set of toms, two crashes, one ride and one set of hi-hats are included for easy kit construction.

Combined, this all makes this EZX a veritable monster of sound for broad use in anything from custom kit creation and sound replacement to acoustic/organic, modern pop, hip-hop, ambient and electronic.

EZdrummer 2 or 3 owner? Enjoy a mind-blowing toolbox of mix-ready kits and instruments.

Superior Drummer 3 user? Revel in a near-infinite palette of options that opens up for limitless sound design.
