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).

9-String Guitar Full of Malice, Lava, and Raw Power

Shreddage 3 Argent returns to the metal roots of the Shreddage line, but more intense than ever before: a head-crushing 9-string Schecter Damien Platinum, one of the guitars used by composer Mick Gordon on the Doom 2016 soundtrack.

So much scorching detail that it took more than 200 hours to sample it all, combined with the easy-to-use performance of the Shreddage engine, gives it exceptional realism.

Brutal, powerful, and nimble, Shreddage 3 Argent inflicts relentless sonic aggression in djent as well as progressive, heavy, death and technical metal.

Over 31,000 Pristine 24-bit Samples

Recorded through two separate pickup positions (neck and bridge) DI, so you can make your own tone.

9 String Guitar Tuned to Low C#

Ultra-low tuning gives this beast the ideal sound for djent, argent metal, and other modern progressive genres. But its enormous range and virtuosic playing ability allow it to go far beyond.

All Crucial Lead and Rhythm Articulations

Sustains, powerchords, palm mutes, staccatos, natural & artificial harmonics, pinch harmonics, tapping, tremolo, slides, FX, hammer-on, pull-off, rakes, and chokes.

Realistic Performances Through Meticulous Sampling

Every string sampled from open up to the highest fret with up to 4x down/4x up strokes per note, 3 dynamic layers, and up to 5 palm mute layers. Our first guitar with 4x down and 4x sustain layers.

76 Production-Ready Tone Snapshots

From hi-gain amped options to clean, ambient playing to ultra-heavy Argent snapshots crafted by Geoffrey Day (a.k.a. GeoffPlaysGuitar).

  • MacOS 10.14 Mojave and above
