Authorizing MachineControl
MachineControl is authorized using the iLok
USB Smart Key (iLok), manufactured by PACE
Anti-Piracy, Inc.
The iLok is similar to a dongle, but unlike a don-
gle, it is designed to securely authorize multiple
software applications from a variety of software
developers.
This key can hold over 100 licenses for all of
your iLok-enabled software. Once an iLok is au-
thorized for a given piece of software, you can
use the iLok to authorize that software on any
computer.
iLok USB Smart Key
The iLok USB Smart Key is not supplied with
your plug-in or software option. You can use
the one included with your Pro Tools|HD
system, or purchase one separately.
