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).

Inspired by a model of the classic British device from the Beatles-era used on hundreds of record since the sixties, Royal Compressor by SounDevice Digital delivers true vintage analog sound and feel.

Pleasant saturation and sensitive compression is something every track really needs.


Vari-mu Compression

The simulation of the vari-mu circuits delivers warmth and pleasant compression to any kind of audio material.

It's more than just suitable for vocals, bass, drums on both insert and bus.


Just a Few Knobs

Back in the analog days when every mix had to be achieved manually, it was necessary, to keep as few controls as possible - Royal Compressor honors this philosophy.

Those few knobs have a massive impact on your sound and deliver the vintage sound and feel almost instantly.


Three Circuit Types

The A/B/C Model knob offers gives you a chance to switch between three models of circuitry with a different value of the fixed attack.


Automatic Gain Control

Worry about the volume no more, the AGC keeps the output signal at the same level no matter how much input gain you add to get some serious saturation.

Changing color doesn't change the output volume.


The Saturator

Unlike the original vintage devices, Royal Compressor also features an adjustable amount of valve saturation.

The random saturation algorithm creates the effect the real hardware would have on your tracks.


CPU Friendly

Although Royal Compressor operates using high internal sample rate, the modern simulation technology allows it to deliver great sound using the minimum CPU power.


Second-Hand Edition

Even partly broken machines can serve well in many studios.

Although their functionality can be limited to just one feature, they may give your records something extra, and that is exactly the case with the second-hand version of  Royal Compressor.


Hassle-Free Software Protection

No iLok, no dongle, or internet access is required for activation. United Plugins uses license files to activate.

You can freely use the purchased software on all your computers as long as you are the user.


Realistic 3D Yet Flexible GUI

Photorealistic graphic user interface of the plugin gives you the feeling you are touching the real hardware, but it easily adapts to your needs.

You can always drag the arrow in the bottom right corner to change its size - make it smaller to save valuable screen space, or enlarge it to make it easier to use.


64-Bit Audio Quality At any Sampling Rate

The plugin provides the maximum audio quality you can get.

It uses 64-bit audio processing and can handle any sampling rate, 192 kHz or even higher.


System Requirements

  • MacOS 10.10 Yosemite and above
  • Windows 8 and above (32 and 64-bit)
  • Intel, AMD, or Apple Silicon CPU

Plugin Formats
