Pro Tools 11 Ilok Crack Only

Support answered before anyone replied here. They said you can't run MC7 without PACE, so unless they only said that to avoid admitting there's a way to use the software without it, I won't be using Avid anymore.
I prefer it over other editors, but it's not worth it to risk installing something buggy on the only system I currently have for work and everything else. I'll continue using Premiere and DaVinci for now and go back to Avid if I ever end up with a second computer I can use just for it.
Pace drivers are for the iLok licensing tool. iLok is a common licensing platform for audio plug-ins. Used by both Protools and Media Composer. You won't find Pace as a program in your start menu because you are only installing the drivers. Since your MC installer is quite old, I would recommend downloading the latest Pace drivers and iLok utility directly from iLok.com. You do not need an iLok account to download the drivers and utility from their website. You can install the latest version before or after running the MC installer. If you already have the latest version installed the MC7 installer will not install the older Pace driver version over it.
We use iLok's license server to serve our Pro Tools licenses. Currently, to connect the computer to the license server you have to log in and manually set it up, even if the server is on the same subnet as the client. iLok doesn't provide any help with configuring the license server IP via typical means of placing a file in a folder to point the client to the server, or CLI command to point it to a server, and basically told me the only way to do it was manually. Obviously this gets old after the first 20 computers.

Activation: In order to run Melodyne on a particular computer, the computer must first be activated for Melodyne. In the course of this process, Melodyne checks the validity of your license data with our server, so an Internet connection is required. You will be prompted to activate Melodyne the first time you launch the program; this only takes a few clicks and you will need your serial number. Please note: Unlike the deactivation process (see below), you can only activate a computer from the computer itself, not from your user account.
Licence, number of activations and workstations: The standard Melodyne license allows you to use Melodyne on one workstation only at a time. However, the license does allow you two activations, the second being an emergency one you can use to activate a substitute computer quickly and easily if, for example, your primary computer breaks down in the middle of a production.
This means that if you have no activations left in your user account but wish to use Melodyne on a new computer, you can simply deactivate another computer that is still active, and this will free up an activation to transfer to your new one. You can switch between computers like this as often as you like. The only restriction is the number of computers involved. If you want to switch activations frequently between a fairly large number of computers, we recommend using the iLok USB copy-protection dongle (see next section).
Nice to know: The fact that you can deactivate a computer from any other computer (provided you first log in to your user account) is important, as it allows you to retrieve your Melodyne activation from a lost or stolen computer or from one that has broken down. You can only activate a computer, on the other hand, from the computer itself and cannot do it through your user account.
Pace offers a variety of license-protection solutions. For technical reasons, we only support one of these i.e. activation by means of an iLok USB dongle, which is available from dealers for around 50 US dollars. The two other varieties (computer-based iLok activation and activation via the iLok Cloud) are not supported by Melodyne.
It's true, released december 19th.
Avid Pro Tools + Avid plugins + vst SSL duende, Slate, Eventide, Lexicon, Softube and more...
I'm sure they already have ilok 3 (and 4) ready for release because it can never be secure for a long time and groups cracking software will never go away. Perhaps they will look into how other companies use other security strategies costing less money and still making a profit even when some % revenue is lost to piracy.
If Kemper ever go software this would also happen. Big reason to stay hardware.
That said, my only issue with the iLok is that Waves requires a separate way of registering, I understand Cubase users have their own Dongle (which then starts taking up USB ports) and so if others start doing that, unless they ALL offer "2 device registrations" like Toontracks does, then moving to a new system will be as major a hassle as installing a whole new OS or porting to a new computer.
It does seem odd that every time someone cracks the code, we have to pay again!
I wonder what the companies that use the ilok to secure there software do when it has failed? I'm sure they don't pay the ilok company for messing up, why should we?
Any software can be cracked and there's nothing you can do about it. I don't see the investment as lost, to be honest. I wouldn't want to be the professional using cracked software when they're at my door to check for pirated stuff. And the customer support, instant updates and that everything works hassle-free is worth enough for me. The only business model that works a bit against piracy is subscription-based stuff, in my opinion, and even those can be found in older versions.
Yes I agree, having everything work nicely and support on the end of the phone if ya need it is worth the money IMO also. I know a few people who were using early cracked stuff and when pro tools 11 came out and being AAX only, they were stuffed and had to buy the software anyway from scratch. I'm glad that the KPA is probably not going to become a plug in so our investment is safe there
Only good thing is I sold my initial plugins which are apparently almost all "Legacy" (they create newer better of the same, charge you full price, then bundle your old one with the new one making yours equity-wise obsolete) I HATE UA for 10 reasons like I hate dongles but at some point you just accept the quirky tools and get on with your stuff.
let me just add my private 2%. i've recently migrated a music workstation with hundreds of plug-ins to a new computer hardware by restoring a system drive image. that took about 60 minutes. the task that took two additional evenings was going though an endless list of plug-ins to re-enter the respective serial numbers (and find it first!). all the ilok license based products just continued to work.
it might be considered old fashion to use a physical "wallet" for you digital purchases but it is convenient. in the event of a hardware related problem it is the fastest way to get back in the game.

While I can appreciate this point, I will also say that (for me) this is not worth it as I migrate workstations only every few years usually and I use my software everyday once installed. I am always struggling for 'good' (non-hub) USB ports on my DAW and losing one full-time to licensing is nuts to me and not a good trade off for the occasional DAW rebuild - plus the $'s for the dongles too. Also if you have a home studio and work studio along with a laptop it can really be a pain with the dongle. Plus I keep all my licenses in a DB file so re-entering them is a snap with cut/past.
The only thing I do *not* like about iLok is that you can't demo software unless you've signed up to the thing. That's why I avoided them for so long - I did not want to commit good money to something to secure a 14 day demo of something that I may or may not want to buy. It's fortunate that I liked the software and it's worked fine since. Otherwise my viewpoint may have differed
You may want to try AV Linux. Version 3.0 will be coming out by the end of November and will have Ardour 2.8.3 with the external UI extension required to run the linuxDSP LV2 plugins mentioned above (also included) Out of the box VST support with either FST or DSSI-VST is also included for VST plugins that comply (not ilok).
Also it looks like my presonus Firebox is supported on linux so that should be fine. My only reservation is the money that I have already invested on OS X applications, and maybe one or two AU/vst plug-ins that I use (they are replaceable I am sure).
A benefit of the PACE Licensing Platform is the activation experience. We give publishers the tools to distribute licenses securely and offer their end-users different ways to access their licenses. Publishers can work with our advanced tools to customize and build the full activation experience into their own in-app store or UI experience. The publisher controls the entire user experience while benefiting from best-in-class security and license management.
