Trouble Installing Izotope Vinyl to Pro Tools 11

[sw rec]

You enter the serial number within the I-lok manager, not when starting Pro Tools. Log onto the I-lok manager, and there's, if memory serves, a "redeem license" option that will allow you to do this.

I think this is going back where this thread has already been.

I am pretty sure Izotope Vinyl uses a provided serial number and does not use iLok licensing. There is no iLok license to redeem.

You're right - Vinyl does not use iLok licensing. Izotope's web page doesn't even say what licensing method it does use (at least not that I can find).

IIRC when downloading or authorizing on Izotope's website, can't remember where it was, you are asked if you want to use Serial Number or iLok to authorize. If you chose iLok, but are trying to use the Serial Number I don't think that will work. With the new Vinyl I had no problems downloading, installing or authorizing to my iLok or using on Windows 8.1 and PT 12.5.

Huh? There is nowhere to select iLok licensing for Vinyl. It's serial number only AFAIK.

If you know different could you post a screenshot of your ILM showing the Vinyl license. (blur/don't show other keys)

This has nothing to do with iLok licensing that iZotope supports for other products. IZotope likely smartly decided paying iLok fees for a free plugin made no sense.

I hear from iZotope folks that they have some ideas for the OP to try, hopefully they will be in touch with him soon. iZotope makes great products, its a pity that licensing problems are biting here.

My apologies, Vinyl indeed does not use an iLok, I must have been recalling the installation of another Izotope product.

My Vinyl Serial Number is visible in my iZotope account>“Purchase History”

I went to my iZotope account>Product Updates page.
Downloaded iZotope_Vinyl_v1_80.exe (Latest Update released February 2, 2016)

Installed Vinyl, instantiated it as a MULTI-MONO plug-in on a stereo Audio Track.

“iZotope Authorization” pop-up window appeared.
Entered my Serial Number/Name/Email Address/Country

I was then given the choice of either Online or Offline Authorization.

Authorized/Activated OK here on Win7

Please note: A serial number is required in order to authorize and use Vinyl. Vinyl will not operate without a serial number.
