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).

Classic Vibes and Beyond

Blue Cat's PolyVibe is a complete re-creation of vintage "vibe" pedals, based on original designs and taking them several steps further for the 21st century.

With a couple of twists and innovations, the plug-in can simulate many kinds of "vibes", chorus, phaser, rotary, or wah/vocal effects, while keeping this particular vintage flavor that is so typical to "vibe" pedals.

Thanks to these extensions, the plug-in is not only suitable for guitars, but for any other instrument, including the human voice.

Like the original "Uni-Vibe" pedal (a registered trademark of Dunlop Manufacturing, Inc.) played by Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour, and many others, the PolyVibe plug-in gives you access to a wide range of vintage "vibe" tones, and much more.

Using the original filters designs as a starting point, the plug-in lets you control their shape and motion in details to create new modulation effects, with two extra modes.

It can also produce stereo vibe effects, while most pedals are still limited to mono these days.

You can of course synchronize the modulation with the host application, and adjust the feel of the oscillator with the "swing" control to fit the music.

Despite all these extra controls and options, it has never been so easy to find your own tone: the Tone Maps helps you explore existing presets and create new effects quickly.

Features

  • Re-creation and extension of the original "vibe" pedals in a plug-in
  • Create new effects with the 3 filter modes: classic, reverse and phase
  • Total control over the filters shapes and motion
  • "Swing" control for more musical effects

  • Synchronize the LFO to the host application, or control the effect with automation or a MIDI expression pedal
  • Navigate presets and create new tones easily with the tone maps explorer
  • Full MIDI control and automation support, MIDI Learn
  • No CPU load on idle: processing shuts down when fed with silence (optimal CPU usage)
  • Customizable user interface with transparency & zoom
  • Smooth Bypass: noiseless plug-in activation / deactivation
  • Undo/Redo
  • Full-featured integrated presets manager
  • Copy/paste the state of the plug-in between instances
  • Any sample rate supported

System Requirements

  • Windows Vista and above (32 and 64-bit)
  • Intel, AMD, or Apple Silicon CPU
