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).


Organic Electronic

Organic drums for hyper-modern productions from one of the world’s premier human beat machines: Ash Soan.

When the likes of Dua Lipa, Alicia Keys, and Taylor Swift need organic-sounding but hyper-fresh beats for their songs, they call Ash Soan. But they don’t send him off to any fancy metropolitan studio to lay down his tracks, they have him record a stone’s throw from his front door. Welcome to The Windmill, 18th-century mill-turned-drum room and arguably the smallest studio that has made the biggest dent in modern music history.

The In the Pocket EZX taps in on the trinity that has made the beats recorded at The Windmill the keystone of countless hits: the inherent magic swirling in the cylinder-shaped structure of its one-of-a-kind room, Ash’s ingenious ability to tune, alter and engineer unique-sounding make-shift kits as well as his inimitable bedrock-solid pocket groove.

In addition to the included MIDI library and wealth of preset content, this EZX includes five core kit variations engineered to cater to the broadest possible cross-section of beat-driven, modern music across the genres. Whether you’re looking to write beats for hip-hop, funk, contemporary R&B, or modern reggae, there’s a kit or preset at your reach.

Welcome to the ultimate canvas for limitless modern music production – and the perfect opportunity to lock in with the pocket of one of today's most in-demand drummers.

The Presets

Combined with the controls in the EZdrummer 2 Mixer or the sound design possibilities in Superior Drummer 3, you’ll have a world of creative opportunities to tweak these kits beyond what you thought possible.



The MIDI

The included MIDI was performed by Ash Soan. It covers one collection of grooves and fills tailored to meet the stylistic approach of each of the five kit variations. The material is conveniently organized in Intro, A, B, C and Fills sections and covers several variations in each category. Simply drag, drop, mix and match to map out an entire organic-sounding performance. As always, with the 'Edit Play Style' feature – the creative possibilities are endless.
