Located in the Syrmia region, it lies on the Fruška Gora hill overlooking the Danube river, which forms the border with the Bačka region of Serbia. The town is home to a Franciscan monastery and Ilok Castle, which is a popular day trip for domestic and cross-border tourists.

The area of present-day Ilok was populated since the neolithic and Bronze Ages. One Scordisci archaeological site dating back to late La Tne culture was excavated in the 1970s and 1980s as a part of rescue excavations in eastern Croatia.[3] The Romans settled there in the 1st or 2nd century and built Cuccium, the first border fortification on the Danube. The Slavs settled here in the 6th century. The area was later ruled by the Bulgarian Empire, with a period of Frankish and Croat rule under Ljudevit Posavski, but after that the Bulgarians return, and stayed there until it was included into the medieval Kingdom of Hungary.

In 12th and 13th centuries the market-town of Ilok was mentioned in documents under various names (Iwnlak, Vilak, Vylok, Wyhok, Wylak). At the end of the 13th century, Hungarian kings gave the Vylak castrum to the powerful Csk noble family. In the 13th and 14th centuries, Ilok was a capital of the semi-independent medieval state of Upper Syrmia ruled by Ugrin Csk.

After 1354, the town of Ilok belonged to Nicholas and Paul Garay (in Croatian references Gorjanski), and then to Nicholas Kont of Orahovica and his descendants, among which was his grandson Ladislaus, great-grandson Nicholas and the last member of the jlaki (Iločki) family - Lawrence. Nicholas was the Ban of All Slavonia from 1457 to 1463, and his son, Lawrence was a duke of Syrmia from 1477 to 1524.

During the Habsburg rule, Ilok belonged to the Kingdom of Slavonia, a Habsburg province that belonged to both the Kingdom of Croatia, and the Kingdom of Hungary. Between 1849 and 1868, the Kingdom of Slavonia was completely separate Habsburg crownland, and in 1868 it was joined with the Kingdom of Croatia to form the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia. In the late 19th and early 20th century, Ilok was a district capital in the Syrmia County of the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia.

In 1918, Ilok first became part of the State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs, and then part of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (in 1929 renamed Kingdom of Yugoslavia). From 1929 to 1939, Ilok was part of the Danube Banovina and, from 1939 to 1941, of the Banovina of Croatia within the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. Between 1941 and 1944, during the Axis occupation of Yugoslavia, it belonged to the Independent State of Croatia. From 1945 onward, it was part of the People's Republic of Croatia within Socialist Yugoslavia.

On 17 October 1991 during the beginning of the Croatian War of Independence, non-Serbs fled as the Yugoslav People's Army led by Serb paramilitaries occupied the area, but spared it from destruction due to its rapid surrounding and occupation. Between 1991 and 1995, Ilok was part of the Republic of Serb Krajina. The area was peacefully reintegrated into Croatia in 1998.

According to the 2021 census, the town proper had 3,928 inhabitants, and the whole municipality of Ilok had 5,147. Before the 2001 census, the town was considered part of the old municipality of Vukovar. With pronounced issue of population decline in eastern Croatia caused by population ageing, effects of the Croatian War of Independence and emigration after the accession of Croatia to the European Union, the population of the town and three suburban settlements at the time of 2021 census dropped to 5,045 from 2011 population of 6,767.

Ilok is one of the centres of the cultural life of the Slovaks of Croatia community.[7] Ilok Slovak community is closely linked with Slovaks in Serbia where there are Slovak communities and Slovak majority villages just across the border and with Slovak language being one of the official languages in Vojvodina.

Once Evangelical Slovaks were granted the right to settle and buy property in the Kingdom of Slavonia in 1859 Slovak settlers across the Danube river in Bačka started to move to Syrmia.[8] Slovak Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession established the local parish in Ilok in 1864 with building serving a place of worship, a school and a teacher's apartment.[8] The Slovak Evangelical school, which existed until 1896, was at the time was one of four confessional schools in the town alongside Croat Catholic, Serb Orthodox and the Jewish Israelite school.[8] State sponsored school education in Ilok was reinitiated in 1922 after the establishment of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes and the public Slovak school will continue its work until 1957.[8] The first Slovak cultural association was established by students of the local gymnasium in 1925 which in the same year joined the Association of Czechoslovak Academicians in Yugoslavia.[9] The Slovak Reading Society was established in 1928 which preserved that name until 1951 when it changed the name into contemporary name the Slovak Cultural and Educational Association Ľudovt Štr.[9]

Slovak branch of the national Union of Czechs and Slovaks was established in Ilok in 1981 with Slovak cultural life continuing even during the Croatian War of Independence.[9] Following the completion of the United Nations Transitional Administration for Eastern Slavonia, Baranja and Western Sirmium Slovak Cultural and Educational Association Ľudovt Štr joined the Union of Slovaks in Croatia while local Matica slovensk was established on 18 December 1997.[9] In that period Slovak community used the right to organize Slovak language education for the first four grades until 2002/2003 school year after which only elective Slovak classes were offered.[8] In 2014 local community commemorated 140 years of the existence of the Evangelical-Slovak Church in Ilok.[10]

Directly elected minority councils and representatives are tasked with consulting tasks for the local or regional authorities in which they are advocating for minority rights and interests, integration into public life and participation in the management of local affairs.[11] At the 2023 Croatian national minorities councils and representatives elections Slovaks and Serbs of Croatia each fulfilled legal requirements to elect 15 members minority councils of the Town of Ilok.[12]

I'd also echo that enthusiasm. The Random Hall plugin is something I use every day and swear by, due to its impeccable sound quality and depth of field. I can't wait to not have to plug in my iLok every time I use Cubase, as every other plugin I use is making use of the cloud. Please keep us updated, thanks!

They are still working on the updates for the VST3, Machine Authentication, stability fixes for all the plugins for both Windows and Mac versions. We may have open beta versions but I have no exact timeline. Hopefully soon!

I don't really understand how people think about the dongle or the ilok, first i have my licenses on ilok since it was ilok 1, (the blue one) then the the second and the third generation without any single problem, so dont blame Ilok if you dont know how to use computers in the right way.

Second, have you ever thought in any cases when the website or/and the company shuts down? you will lose your money because there will be no authentication any more, but when it is on ilok you can use after 100 years without any restrictions.

As of now there are no plans to integrate our license with the iLok Cloud but definitely for Machine authentication and licenses are always active through Pace/iLok etc. Even if you lost your iLok dongle.

We will see about iLok cloud for the future if there is an option. I think it is the most convenient myself. Some other companies like Softube for example only offer dongle/machine authentication still too. I'm sure most companies including ours will move to cloud though

Also I am going to need to buy a new computer soon, I thought maybe I can go linux all the way. Is this wise? Or are there any advantages of using OS X over linux in terms of stability and professional production quality (apart from the obvious fact that there are all these commercial software available on the mac which I am not really interested in anyway)? For instance how does the sample-rate conversion quality compare with a commercial software like izotope (which is what I use o the mac)? See here for more detail:

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).

Thanks very much for your comments. Well actually I am not that dependent on vst plug-ins. I think I could manage to do more or less all that in csound (e.g. csLADSPA which works very nicely with Ardour).

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).

Also, for your vst plugins, you still can use them under linux using dssi-vst, a standalone host that will run them outside Ardour (you can use creating inserts on ardour tracks). The advantage of this is that if a vst plugin crashes or fails Ardour will not crash.

I just found out on iLok official webpage (faq section) that they are listing Bitdefender as incompatible with iLok License Manager (from PACE). Here is the link: help.ilok .com/faq_ilm .html

The issue is that iLok License Manager does not start at all when you click on it (basically nothing happens. You see the blue circle for a sec then it disappears. The program does not even load in memory). So it's the second issue listed "I can't launch the app..."
