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).

Distorted Soundscapes for Cinematic Scoring

A collection of inspiring and modern cinematic guitar sounds, textures and loops - from ambient to apocalyptic - created and performed exclusively by renowned guitar innovator Leo Abrahams, and expertly sampled by Spitfire Audio.

Designed for use in film, TV and game music and especially suited to dark, urbane, indie style scores, its early incarnation is already a directors' and composers' favourite.

This intuitive and instantly playable toolkit will inspire any discerning media composer or producer looking for fresh sounds and atmospheric textures with an experimental edge.


Distorted Soundscapes

Ambient Guitars is a collaboration between Spitfire Audio and renowned composer, producer and guitarist Leo Abrahams.

Featuring amazing new material recorded in 2019 and an amalgamation of two true Spitfire classics; Enigma 1 & 2, it is now presented in our hugely versatile, dedicated eDNA Engine UI (except our Evolutions & Distorted samples).

We give you over 600 sounds, including over 10GB of brand new recordings and additional curated presets.

Spitfire also updated this to the free Kontakt Player format, with full NKS support.

From atmospheric pad sounds to dark, heavy distorted guitars, this library gives you everything you could possibly want from a guitar for media composition.

In 2013, the Spitfire team decamped to London's legendary Pool Studios (host to artists from Nick Cave to Depeche Mode, Arctic Monkeys to Foals) to capture Leo's cutting edge techniques, created largely on a Trussart guitar, as well as a 1960s Gibson 355 and a Danelectro Hornet, plugged into a rare and enviable collection of pedals and amps.

Discover over 400 presets - weird and wonderful sounding guitars, reverberant pads, dark, distorted plucks, warped pedal FX and synths.

The 'Distorted' collection of sounds (formerly known as Enigma 2) comprises 18 tight and punchy distorted electric guitar instruments distinct in sound and character, through three amps and a variety of pedals.

Add layers of distortion and feedback to create walls of sound or devastatingly haunting, dark, distorted beauty.


These versatile, contemporary soundscapes are sometimes unrecognisable as guitars - from glistening passages to guitars warped beyond recognition, plus ultra-realistic fast action picking to add movement or percussive elements.

The evolutions, presented in our sophisticated 16x16 Evo Grid with 4 different amps and signal paths to patch in and mix, allow you to add an element of the unexpected to your composition.

Due to its organic origins, Ambient Guitars brings honest emotion to your composition, and the analogue distortion gives you an authentic layer of grit and depth not achievable with digital distortion.

These sounds will layer into your mix perfectly, adding a timeless edge to a huge range of settings - from inner city scenes to desolate, sweeping vistas - for film and game composers, or discerning electronic and pop producers alike.


Almost immediately after their release, Spitfire's early guitar libraries made in collaboration with Leo Abrahams, Enigma and Enigma 2 The Rapture became go-to collections for creating cinematic soundscapes, inspiring music makers the world over.

In light of their success, and inspired by the immediately playable LABS Peel Guitar - distorted, but chime-like and full of character - Spitfire welcomed Leo to Spitfire Studios in 2019 to create a whole new collection of textures - Amped Guitar Pads.

The latest edition also includes 160 brand new artist presets, created by the Spitfire Audio team.
