You can have licenses from multiple software publishers on the same iLok, and multiple iLoks can be connected to a computer to authorize software products. The iLok is portable, convenient, and hassle free. The new version of the iLok was designed to meet the increasingly sophisticated demands of both users and software publishers:Capacity: The new iLok holds far more licenses than does the original iLok; it can hold about five times the number of licenses.Size: The new iLok is smaller than the original iLok; the new iLok's physical profile allows for two iLoks to be inserted in adjacent USB ports.Durability: The original iLok was subjected to an array of torture tests and showed amazing resilience, but the new iLok is built tougher and has a more solid USB connector.Customization: You can add your own custom labeling underneath a protective sleeve.TLC: The new iLok is eligible for TLC coverage. Box Contains iLok

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it come with the ilok account or do i need to buy or resister that elsewere?**
A: An iLOK account is free and you don't even need an iLOK dongle to set one up - all the Usb dongle and your account does is hold your software licences (eg Waves Gold plugin package) so you can use your plugins wherever you want, in any DAW, as long as you have the iLOK plugged into that pc/Mac.. Hope that makes sense :)

**Q: Is this an Ilok 2? works with pro tools 12?**
A: Yes it does, I run 12.3 and 10, both licensed on this. It'll also work for all slate digital plugins, eventide, izotope, mcdsp etc...
