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).

A Four Section String-Stravaganza

When using Studio Strings, you can choose between instrumentation options that open up endless possibilities for sound crafting.

The four included models, coupled with various articulations, give you an entire orchestra at your fingertips.

Bass

The Bass model is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed instrument in the Orchestra - the original sub-bass!

Its tone will add a deep bottom-end to your string lines.

Cello

The Cello is part of the low end of the orchestra, but it has a slightly higher pitch range than the double bass instrument.

Because of this higher pitch range, cellos are often heard in solo lead lines in orchestral arrangements thanks to the beautiful harmonics of their eminently recognizable tones.

Viola

The Viola is a beautiful instrument that brings fullness to the Orchestra with an excellent mid-range pitch that sounds like a violin with added richness.

The viola can often be mistaken for violin tones, but its deeper pitch and fullness give it a character all its own!

Violin

The Violin is the highest-pitched instrument in the string section.

It's often heard as the main melodic instrument of the orchestra.

Typically when you listen to strings, you think of the violin, and that's because there are usually several sections of them playing in any classical arrangement.
