The information discussed in this guide does not apply to any iLok-based AIR plugins. For a list of these and instructions on activating, please visit the FAQ question below.
Upon purchase, a license code will be deposited into the inMusic Profile associated with the email entered at purchase. So be sure to use the email associated with your current inMusic Brands/akaipro.com account when checking out. However, this will remain in your account and will not be needed for the activation process. The activations are linked directly to your inMusic Profile, meaning that activating any computer simply involves logging into your inMusic Profile when prompted in the plugin UI.

Authorizing the software to the first computer and any subsequent computer will be the same. Each plugin installation will install a standalone version of the application that can be run outside of the DAW. Authorizing the plugin simply involves launching this standalone app and logging into your inMusic account when prompted. The plugin will now be activated directly to the computer.
Alternatively, you can authorize the plugin through your DAW. When your DAW scans for plugins (on startup or manually) and finds your AIR plugin for the first time, an authorizer will be launched. Just as with the standalone application, follow the prompts to log into your inMusic Profile.

Each of these AIR plugins can be authorized on up to three (3) computers simultaneously. This means that you can have three computers all running the software at the same time.
If you have already activated your AIR plugin to three (3) computers and would like to authorize a fourth computer, simply follow the same installation and activation process on the new computer and the first activation will be seamlessly moved to your new computer.
If you need to re-authorize the original computer, simply follow the same process, log back in when prompted, and your system will be authorized again!
There is no need to deactivate your plugins. You can activate up to three (3) computers simultaneously, and when a fourth activation is needed, it will be moved from a prior activation. Basically, the activation will automatically deactivate as you activate new computers.
The following plugins still currently utilize the PACE iLok Authorization System and therefore use a different process for authorization. Please see below for a full list and visit our guide here for a walkthrough on authorizing these plugins.
