Perpetual license owners are being dumped

The first Slate users who could only BUY their plugins, are forced to use the iLok dongle. As a perpetual license owner you can NOT store your licenses in the iLok cloud or on your computer. You have to use the USB-A dongle. (@Steven: did you notice there is NO USB-A slot on a PowerBook Pro?)

So after a relationship of over ten years, it sadly ends here. Not good at all.

Hi Pim. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. While All Access Pass holders can use iLok Cloud to validate all their plugins, you are correct in noting that perpetual plugins must be validated with an iLok USB key.

We're working on a better solution for perpetual plugin customers, and hope you will check back shortly with us as we'd love to welcome you back! <3

The first plugin i’ve bought from slate was the virtual tape, way before the all bundle and bought a few more, that still in use in every production i do.
The slate bundle is the most affordable bundle out there and the most useful i can think of. it sounds great, it looks great and all the tutorials are simply the best. to top all that, the sound banks and presets are awesome.
recently i’ve started working with the mo-tt on my mastering session.
I love all the products and it became my signature sound.
Thanks for all of that steven, you rock my world!

Great Mixing Powerhouse

I started to use Slate's Trigger 2 a few years ago when I was at university and I really loved the quality and user experience of the product. Years later, when I became more experienced and with a more trained ear, I invested a little money in the all access pass for one year. Since then, many plugin became my go to and a staple in my workflow. I use the Virtual Mix Mix Rack on basically any source due to its great Analog flavour and versatility. The price tag is great! highly recommended

The Slate Digital experience is…

The Slate Digital experience is mind-blowing.
Real-world modelled hardware in software plugins, for less than 2 Starbucks and a muffin per month.
My million dollar studio has become a reality because of Slate and thier monthly pricing policy.
Combined with Cakewalk by Bandlab (a free top tier DAW - long story) and a Slate monthly sub for $14.99 - I can complete with any audio engineer out there.
I love the Slate workflow too, it's simple and easy to adopt and your ears will thank you for the purchase, the end product is always amazing.
Long live Steven and Fabrice and everyone at Slate Digital, thank-you for making this service to the music industry, so accessible to so many.

The plugins are great but in order to access the virtual mix rack for my vms ml-1, I had to buy an iLok usb which plays a huge role in my rating considering almost all other competitors at the most only require an iLok account. It's time for Slate to get out of the dark ages

Hi There. Thanks so much for your feedback, and we're sorry you've had a negative experience using the iLok activation. We are working on a way for folks to not have to use an iLok USB key, so I hope you give us a 2nd chance in the near future!

Simply Amazing.

Amazing collection of VSTs from compressors to synths. All at a ridiculously low monthly price. More plugins getting added all the time as well. Highly recommended to anyone who's into music production. You can't go wrong with their All Access Pass.

Slate digital audio tools were behind…Small Island Big Song giving voice to artists on the frontline of the climate crisis.

Slate digital audio tools were behind our award-winning album, recorded over 3 years with Indigenous artists of the Pacific & Indian ocean on their homelands in nature for climate justice. I used only EQ and Compression in production using only the slate digital suite.

Kevin, your post makes my day. Like you, I was stuck for a while not making music—must be room in that Brinks truck for two. I'm so thrilled you're making music again and that our plugins have been part of your story. <3
