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).


Get ready to add some serious guitar goodness to your hip-hop production with ease, no guitar-playing skills required.

Resident sound designer Niall McCallum returns with Hop Riffs - a Strum GS sound set tailored to discriminating hip-hop beatmakers and producers in dire need of guitar flavor.

Feel the groove take over your arrangements with this laid-back collection inspired by the modern wave of Lo-Fi hip hop flooding the internet, as well as pioneers of the genre's classic 90s boom bap period.

Hop Riffs features 12 hip hop sub-genres, 84 guitar presets, and 84 strumming patterns playable with your own chord progressions.

Watch Hop Riffs’ deceptively simple strumming patterns come to life once combined with your favorite groovy drum beat making it dance and spark all over your song.

From gentle chord figures and glistening arpeggios, to punchy dark riffs and atmospheric background textures, kick back and ignite your next beat with Hop Riffs' generous sprinkling of rich effects and smooth, versatile tones.


Works Two Ways

Hop Riffs was created with the Strum GS-2 acoustic and electric guitars.

You can play and edit the sounds in Strum GS-2, but you can also access and play them via the free AAS Player plugin included with your purchase.
