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).

We created the Matt Halpern Drum Library to scratch our own itch. Virtual drums are an integral part of our creative process, and we simply couldn’t find a drum library that had everything we needed. We needed a library that had a truly full range of velocities, with everything from fluttery ghost notes to crushing full-power hits. Since we couldn't buy what we needed, we made our own.

After assembling an amazing collection of drums featuring our favourite Mapex Saturn IV and V shells and Meinl cymbals, we booked time at Magpie Cage Studios (home to one of our favourite drum/live rooms) and got to work. After the session we walked out of the studio with a full range of articulations all impeccably tuned, performed and captured, encompassing all of the details that we couldn’t find in any other drum library.

All the bells & whistles for effortless songwriting and mixing.

We built the Matt Halpern library as the tool we wished we had years ago, with all the little details and creature comforts we couldn’t find in other libraries:

  • The Halpern library is now a Player Library (NKS) and can be used with Kontakt’s Free Player – no need to buy the full version of Kontakt to use GGD!
  • A fully-featured and intuitive UI for building your kit and working with spot and room mics
  • Full range of velocity layers– hard hits that are actually hard, with that hard-to-get mix of body and attack
  • A wide variety of articulations: snare on and off; centre and rim hits on snare and toms; bell and side-stick on the ride cymbal
  • Cymbal matrix
  • Different tunings for each of the 5 snares to give you a full range of sonic options without having to resort to pitch shifting or other tricks that degrade the tones
  • The entire kit is tuned to perfection, so you’ll never be fighting against sour notes in your mix
  • Every sample is phase-coherent for easy layering

Whether you're sketching out a song idea or working on a final mix, the Matt Halpern library gives you all the tools you need to bring your ideas to life.

System Requirements

  • Native Instruments Kontakt Player 6 and above OR Kontakt Full 6 and above
  • MacOS 10.14 Mojave and above
  • Windows 7 and above (32 and 64-bit)
  • Intel, AMD, or Apple Silicon CPU
  • 4GB RAM or more (6GB or more recommened)
