Installing Plug-ins for VENUE
Systems
Installers for VENUE plug-ins can be down-
loaded from www.digidesign.com. After down-
loading, the installer must be transferred to ei-
ther a USB drive or a CD-ROM. Plugs-ins can be
installed using a USB drive connected to the
UDB ports on any VENUE system, or using a CD-
ROM inserted into the CD drive available on an
FOH Rack or Mix Rack.
Authorizing Plug-ins
Bomb Factory plug-ins are authorized using the
iLok USB Smart Key (iLok), manufactured by
PACE Anti-Piracy, Inc.
The iLok is similar to a dongle, but unlike a don-
gle, it is designed to securely authorize multiple
software applications from a variety of software
developers.
This key can hold over 100 licenses for all of
your iLok-enabled software. Once an iLok is au-
thorized for a given piece of software, you can
use the iLok to authorize that software on any
computer.
Authorizing Download Versions of
Plug-ins for Pro Tools
If you purchased a download version of a plug-
in from the DigiStore (www.digidesign.com),
authorize the plug-in by downloading licenses
from iLok.com to an iLok.
Authorizing Boxed Versions of
Plug-ins for Pro Tools
If you purchased a boxed version of a plug-in, it
comes with an Activation Code (on the included
Activation Card). You will need this code to au-
thorize your plug-in.
To authorize a plug-in using an Activation Code:
1 If you do not have an existing iLok.com ac-
count, visit www.iLok.com and sign up for an
iLok.com account.
For complete instructions on installing
plug-ins for VENUE systems, see the docu-
mentation that came with your VENUE sys-
tem.
iLok USB Smart Key
Not all Bomb Factory plug-ins require au-
thorization. For example, no authorization
is required for Free Bomb Factory plug-ins.
The iLok USB Smart Key is not supplied
with your plug-in or software option. You
can use the one included with certain
Pro Tools systems (such as Pro Tools|HD-
series systems), or purchase one separately.
