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).

The Definitive Drum Collection For Metal and Modern Heavy Music.

The Modern Heavy ADpak and Metal ADpak offer two powerful drum kits for different ends of the heavy spectrum.

Modern Heavy brings a polished, high-fidelity sound suited to bands like Gojira, Tool, and Mastodon, while Metal leans into rawer, more aggressive tones inspired by the energy of Sepultura and classic American metal.

The Modern Heavy Beats and Diabolic MIDIpaks add a wide range of grooves - from tight, rhythmically complex patterns to driving, straight-ahead metal beats.

Whether you're channeling the weight of Meshuggah or the punch of High on Fire, these grooves help you shape heavy drum parts that stay musical and impactful.


This collection includes:

  • Addictive Drums 2
  • Metal ADpak
  • Modern Heavy ADpak
  • Diabolic MIDIpak
  • Modern Heavy Beats & Songs MIDIpak


Metal

Heavy kick, thunderous toms, and a razor-sharp snare.

This hard-as-nails ADpak embodies the sound and fury of metal music.

Ross Robinson is a metal legend. Having discovered bands like Korn and Slipknot as well as produced seminal albums for bands including Sepultura, his place in the pantheon of metal is unquestioned. XLN Audio is honored to have Robinson producing this ADpak.



Studio Prog

Clean, balanced, and precise. The Studio Prog kit is perfect for songs that need fast and highly technical drumming.

If you're working on progressive rock or other experimental music with complex rhythms and intricate playing, the Studio Prog kit is for you.

This balanced kit has a detailed sound that shows off your smallest nuances while still retaining the punch and power of a real rock kit.
