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).

Dizi is a Chinese transverse flute-like instrument made of the bamboo trunk.

Unlike similar instruments, Dizi has a bulrush-made membrane that vibrates with airflow, making up its uniquely clear and bright sound.

Dizi is an incredibly expressive instrument, besides its smooth and beautiful melodic parts, Dizi can be played with a rich set of performances, such as rapid finger-popping, tongue-flutter, and airflow vibrato, allowing Dizi to play the most complex solo parts.

Dizi Qudi (literally melodic Dizi), which is usually used for playing solo works as the primary instrument of complex work, is what we present here in Whisper of Loong.


Adjustable Sound Field

When samples were recorded, 10 different microphones were used with different positions to capture the spatial and reverb characteristics of Dizi.

All these channels were mixed down to four channels: Yin, Yang, and far stereo.

The volumes of these four channels were adjustable in software, making it possible to obtain various tones.


Performances

By controlling airflow and finger, Dizi has a very rich set of performances such as mordent, finger pole popping, trill, flutter, vibrato, staccato, and gliss.

All these performances can be triggered in Whisper of Loong software, making it the most adjustable Dizi virtual instrument.


Realistic Expressions

Whisper of Loong has real-recorded expressions that are freely controllable.

With the control of MIDI CC, it can express tone changes like a real Dizi performance.


Glissando

With three different speeds of real-recorded gliss samples and sample synthesis technique, Whisper of Loong can perform gliss at freely adjustable speed.


Vibrato Engine

Real-sample-based LFO engine making Whisper of Loong performs vibrato that is both realistic and adjustable.


Sampling Engine

Self-developed sampling engine with better sound quality, more powerful disk buffer streaming/sampling compression technology, and brand-new sound fusion technology.


Legato

We recorded the sound between legato notes in two speeds, and apply them according to playing speed in software.

In addition, we recorded "popping legato" that are specific in Chinese Dizi.


Convolution Reverb

At the beginning of Chinese Traditional series development, we started to record the convolution reverb samples from spectacular places, famous natural and historical heritages in China. Thus you can simulate Whisper of Loong being played at the Great Wall or Terracotta Army site.


Effect Rack

A Compressor, EQ, Chorus, and Ping-Pong delay are included, allowing you to create more flexible sounds.


Pattern Library

Tear of Land provides you with a pattern library that allows you to easily realize your works and ideas.

You can also create your own patterns by dragging in MIDI clips.
