Create an iLok account

MixWave software is licensed with an iLok. To use it, you will need to connect its iLok license to your computer via an iLok USB dongle. If you don’t already have an iLok account, you’ll need to create one and install the iLok License Manager app. Follow the steps below to get started. If you already have an account, pass these steps, and continue to download and install. Check out our iLok Quickstart Guide for more information.

1. Visit iLok’s Registration page and complete the registration form. 
   • Please take note of your User ID and password, as they are case-sensitive.
2. Open the iLok Account Activation email and click on the verification link.
3. Download and install iLok License Manager.
4. Launch the iLok License Manager app and sign in to your account.
   • (Optional) Connect an iLok and click Yes to register the dongle to your account when prompted.
