How to use iLok Cloud authorisation

Modified on Sun, 21 Aug 2022 at 02:35 PM

Nembrini Audio licences that can be activated to the Cloud feature 2 activations, which means you can keep your licence on your iLok  or computer but also have a spare activation to use with iLok Cloud, freeing you from having to keep your iLok device plugged in all the time.


Cloud-compatible licence with an available activation will automatically be activated to the when you start a Cloud session. If you had an existing Cloud session open on a different machine, that session will end, and your iLok Cloud-compatible licences will start authorising your plug-ins until you close the Cloud session.


Starting a Cloud session in iLok Licence Manager

  1. Make sure you have installed the newest version of your plug-ins and iLok Licence Manager.
  2. Open iLok Licence Manager, and go to File > Open Cloud Session.
  3. All of your available Nembrini Audio licences will be moved into the Cloud until you close the session, or start a Cloud session on a different computer.


Starting a Cloud session from your DAW

  1. Make sure you have installed the newest version of your plug-ins and iLok Licence Manager.
  2. Run your favourite DAW without a valid licence location available (ie without your iLok plugged in).
  3. The host will scan your plug-ins on start up, and you will be prompted to sign in to your iLok account.
  4. Once you've signed in, iLok will do a quick check to clarify that the licence in question has an available activation.
    If an activation is available, you'll be asked if you want to start an iLok Cloud Session.
  5. Click "OK", and all of your available Nembrini Audiolicences will be moved into the Cloud until you close the session, or start a Cloud session on a different computer.

FAQ's


How do I know if my Nembrini Audio licence has an available activation?

In iLok Licence Manager, locate your Nembrini Audio licences - you may need to hit the "All Licences" tab, or locate the iLok device authorising your licences in the left hand column.


Next to your licence, you will be given information about its activations


You can only activate a licence to the Cloud if at least one activation is available. If you have used both activations on other iLok devices, please remove one before starting a Cloud session.



My Nembrini Audio licence is in the Cloud, but it's not authorising my plug-in!

Make sure you've installed the newest version of your plug-ins. You can download your installers from the products page.
