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).


For most of us, the anatomy of sound and its inner workings as a creative catalyst is a peculiar thing.

The moment we hear something we can't define, a new instrument, our minds inevitably open up to interpretations beyond the convention.

Sound becomes visuals that in turn transform into tangible ideas.

This library of sounds for EZkeys is a prime example of just that.

EZkeys Cinematic Pads is based around several analog and modular synths as well as a vintage grand piano and an electric bowed guitar.

Together, these components form a never-before-heard hybrid instrument of reverberant, peculiar, fluttering, ominous, visceral, fluid and literally out-of-this-world audio landscapes.

With this at hand, you're an intrepid explorer at the helm of an audio vessel headed straight into the unknown - weightlessly drifting through an interstellar cosmos en route to uncharted sonic frontiers.

If you let yourself go, you’ll enter a realm where the divide between reality and dream is nothing but a lucid gradient ready for you to pierce though.


  • A hybrid instrument of never-before-heard textures of sound
  • Based on several analog and modular synths as well as a grand piano and an electric bowed guitar
  • In excess of 70 mix-ready presets offering a widely creative panorama of ambient sounds
  • Ideal for anything from soundscapes, scores and sound design to modern pop and electronic

Modular Synths

In simple terms, a modular synth is a make-your-own-synth system where modules like oscillators, filters, amplifiers, LFOs, envelopes and more are used to produce one-of-a-kind sounds in real-time.

Several classic modular systems were used to create the unique sounds in EZkeys Cinematic Pads.


Analog Synths

A handpicked selection of classic analog instruments were blended in as a contrast to the modular sounds.


Bowed Guitar

The bowed guitar is a Togaman GuitarViol. Essentially, this unique instrument is a hybrid of a guitar and a viola or cello.

It's traditionally tuned like a classic guitar but played with a bow.


Grand Piano

The piano featured in the back end of EZkeys Cinematic Pads is a Bösendorfer from 1891.

It was sampled in traditional Toontrack fashion but had each note reversed in the final product.
