The only Slate product I have that offers software ( non-dongle ) authorization is Trigger 2. I would be a happy camper if I could do away with the dongle all together.

From their Website iLok Requirements The All Access Pass can be used with iLok Cloud and does not require an iLok USB dongle. You will just need an active internet connection to use iLok Cloud. Perpetual "Buy Now" individual plugin licenses require an iLok 2 or iLok 3 USB dongle. So, yes, you are correct...the perpetual licenses DO require an iLok Dongle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mister_tea 242 Posted November 4, 2021 Is it still the case that all Slate Drums, expansions and Trigger licenses are perpetual? IIRC they're confusingly not in "All" Access, but some third-party products are. Someone mentioned to me that "Slate Digital" and "Steven Slate Drums" are separate or something?

Larry Shelby 25,999 Posted November 4, 2021 So, just so EVERYONE is clear on this Slate Drums can use BOTH Soft iLok and Dongle Slate All Access uses "iLok Cloud" Slate Perpetual Plugins require "iLok 2 or 3" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluzdog 507 Posted November 4, 2021 For what it's worth, I was kind of being a smart ***** because of another thread. You are correct that Slate Digital Trigger 2 and Steven Slate Drums 5 will both run without a dongle. I'm also a little bitter and feel like Slate abandoned long time perpetual users by not updating all of their plugins to machine authorization. I'm anti-subscription and won't be buying any more Slate products that require a dongle. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
