Sorry again.

Cheers!

The price must be high due to shipping and taxes, but otherwise I would say just go for it as that version three is million times more sturdy than the old ones. I myself have broken three version ones, one version two and still have half a dozen version twos on a box in case I should need a spare. But only one version three and happy about it.

I apologize for derailing this thread...
I have an iLok 2 with Zero Downtime.
Purchased iLok 3, and will transfer licenses from iLok 2.
Will I have to repurchase Zero Downtime for iLok 3?

I think ZDT is key dependent, but once your current plan runs out you can transfer the next year to the new one. You can however ask for iLok what is their policy.

I had a feeling that would be the case.
Thanks, Janne!

It may also be that you can transfer ZDT but the theft and loss coverage is key dependant. So it does not hurt to ask them.

Yes, prices in Europe are always higher than US. Also, I live in Croatia where VAT is 25% plus margin of the local shop who has it on stock.

I agree with your suggestion, I'll just buy it and try and let you know if it's OK. At least my experience will help others with same question.

Cheers!

Hi. I'm using iLok3 for more than a month now and here are answers to all questions from this thread:

- iLok3 works OK with ProTools HD10 on Windows7 x64 PC using recent iLok manager and legacy drivers from old installers folder

- with the legacy driver required for PT10, iLok3 works OK with all other older and newer software I tried. All previous sessions and plugins load and authorize fine

- iLok3 uses exactly same driver system file as iLok1 (iLokdrvr.sys) version 6.1.0.0. from 2013.

- I didn't notice any difference in behavior and performance (DPC latency spikes) compared ti iLok1

Cheers!

S
