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).


Treat Your Samples Like Never Before!

Import any audio, extract up to 6 layers, tweak layers separately, and exchange Tone Colors.

Define your signature sound with the unparalleled capabilities of NOVUM: Ushering in the next generation of creative sampling, NOVUM opens the door to a universe of sonic possibilities.

Create fascinating instruments from a single sample. From delicate pads to massive walls of resonating synths, NOVUM's sonic range is only limited by your imagination.

All of this is packed into a radically intuitive and efficient UI, designed by the acclaimed plugin creator of Abyss and Chop Suey.


Advanced Granular Synthesis

Shimmering sound particles, sonic glitter, and a good measure of acoustic fairy dust, granular synthesis renders even the mundane beautiful.

Speed and pitch are independent, plus you can sync the grains to your DAW's tempo to create pulsing rhythms. NOVUM's unique HOMOGENIZE feature allows for smooth, velvet-like textures that are hard to create with classical granular synths.

Add to this the immense power of six granular layers and you have sounds bigger than life.


Sound Clay

We are used to summing audio layers into a single audio file. But how about the other way round?

At the heart of NOVUM lies the possibility to "decompose" a single sample into 6 independent layers.

This gives you disentangled access to the timbral characteristic on the one hand and the temporal dynamics on the other hand.

And that makes all the difference, turning your static sample into a flexible sound-clay.


Cross-Synthesis

Want to take a flute sample, but hear it with the timbre of a piano? Or trigger a classic filter sweep, but with the tone colors of a church bell? NOVUM makes this easy.

With a simple drag and drop, you can combine sonic elements with each other freely. To make this process even simpler: import your sample, then lock its tone colors and envelopes.

Now you can browse through the presets keeping your sample in place: dozens of truly unique variations are at your fingertips in seconds.


Endless Possibilities

"Every sound can be an instrument" - this is the design philosophy that lies at the heart of NOVUM.

Turn field recordings into playable, tuned instruments with the Comb-Filter, while maintaining the original texture.

Convert an out-of-tune Violin sample into a soaring string ensemble with a few tweaks of the granular playback.

Use the timbre flower to transform a choir into a shimmering glass pad.

Or use SYNTIFY to transmute your sample into a dark synth drone, like something straight out of a weird modular monster.
