Activating Plugins with iLok License Manager

Once you have purchased the one of our plugins from our online store or another digital retailer, you will be sent a 32-digit activation code containing your license. Make sure you have the latest version of iLok License Manager installed and a valid iLok account before you continue. Click here to download the latest version of iLok License Manager.

Step 1
Open iLok License Manager and sign in to the iLok account associated with your iLok USB dongle or an iLok Cloud Session if you have either of them.

Step 2
Click the “Redeem an Activation Code” button in the top right corner of the screen and enter the 30-digit activation code provided by your purchase. Then, click next.

Step 3
Select a license from the list of licenses and click the “Activate Licenses” button highlighted in the top right corner of the screen.

Step 4
Select either a iLok Cloud Session or your iLok USB from the list of locations and click “Activate.” Then, you will be prompted to confirm your activation. After you confirm the activation, you will be able to use your product in every DAW. If there are no locations available, you can open an iLok Cloud Session by click File > “Open Your Cloud Session” within iLok License Manager.


Additional Notes
• If you activate your product to an iLok Cloud Session, you must maintain a steady internet connection
• If connection to the internet or your iLok USB is lost, the plugin will eventually stop working until it is reconnected.
• Once the license is activated to your iLok Account you will be able to deactivate it and re-activate it to another location in the future.
• Activation codes can only be redeemed once. Once redeemed, a license is deposited to your iLok account and can be activated to either an iLok USB or iLok Cloud Session from within iLok License Manager.
Installing the Arousor to AVID VENUE Systems
