You can activate our instrument plugins on up to 3 locations at once, but your license needs to be linked to your iLok account for this. Haven't you redeemed your license to an iLok account yet? Please read on here: Taking ownership of your license.
If your license was linked to your iLok account, follow the steps below:
- Launch your DAW. When your DAW recognizes your newly installed plugin for the first time, it will show this activation window. If the popup doesn't show, try opening the plugin by placing it on a new instrument track. Click on ‘Activate’.
If the window above never shows up on your computer and your DAW seems to freeze or ignore the plug-in, then please leave this article and activate your license with the dedicated application "iLok License Manager" instead -> Activating your plugin with iLok License Manager
- Instead of entering the activation code another time, just click on 'Skip' in order to log into your iLok account instead and retrieve the license from there.

- Enter your iLok account credentials and log in.
-
Choose the location for your license activation. You can activate on up to three locations at the same time. This includes iLok dongle(s) if you wish.
-
The license is now activated on the location you had selected, and you can start using your instrument plugin.
