PACE Anti-Piracy Inc. has announced the release of a new version of the iLok USB Smart Key.

The iLok was redesigned from the ground up with usability considerations and performance in mind. The new iLok holds over 500 software license authorizations; five times the number of software licenses than the previous iLok.

Design improvements include the security loop on the end of the iLok so that two iLoks may now be placed side by side in adjacent USB ports, a stronger USB connector, and a new solid body making the iLok more durable than ever. The second generation iLok is fully compatible with the original iLok.

New iLok USB Smart Key

• Smaller: two iLoks now fit side by side in adjacent USB ports.
• Stronger: sturdier USB connector and solid body makes it one tough iLok.
• Higher Capacity: holds over 500 software license authorizations.
• Customizable: add a custom label under the protective sleeve – no more guessing which iLok is which.
• Hip: sleek black design and cool blue LED.

The 2^nd generation iLok is available to purchase for $49.95 USD.

audioMIDI.com has announced a new No-Brainer Deal: XILS 3LE, a limited features version of the XILS 3 virtual synthesizer plug-in for Windows and Mac.

The No-Brainer version is a limited features version of the XILS 3 which doesn’t bring all the new modules and modulations possibilities of the recent 1.1.0 and it won’t be updated with the incoming new versions (we plan new filter, new preset managements, new GUI, …).

XILS 3LE features

• Three aliasing-free oscillators : sine, ramp, square, triangle.
• One 2/4 poles low pass filter (a 3 pole self-oscillating mode is also planned).
• One envelope, based on two different designs, trapezoid and ADSR.
• One spring reverb.
• One ring modulator.
• One 128 steps sequencer.
• two output static filters.
• One joy stick.
• Three connection matrix.
• One input gate.
• One input envelope follower.
• One pitch tracker.
• One transient tracker.
• Mono/Unison/Polyphonic playing mode, up to 18 voices of polyphony.
• all parameters MIDI controllable.
• Many presets made by famous sound designers (Kevin Lamb, Chris Pitman, Cliff Douse, to name but a few).

XILS 3LE is available to purchase for PC and Mac (VST/AU/RTAS) for $20 USD. A special upgrade price will be launched in the following weeks for all the no-brainer customers: Full version and all its further updates will be available for 69 EUR ($99 USD).

Note: The copy protection is a serial number, but the installer will install an iLok extension. This is because XILS 3 makes use of a “soft” iLok license, but you do not need a physical iLok key to install and use XILS 3LE. This will not effect existing iLok devices or associated software.
