If you decide to sell your Line 6 device, then keep in mind that any Add-On License Keys that
have been added to that device will remain on it, and you won’t be able to transfer them to
another device without physically connecting both Line 6 devices to your computer. So be sure
to remove your purchased Add-Ons from a Line 6 device BEFORE you sell it if you want to
transfer them to a new device!
POD Farm 2 Plug-In for iLok
POD Farm 2 Plug-In is protected software and requires an authorized license to run on your computer.
The POD Farm 2 Plug-In license comes with, or can be added to, all the Line 6 USB audio interfaces,
as discussed in the Line 6 Monkey and Hardware sections of this User Guide. Line 6 also offers the POD
Farm 2 Plug-In license to be purchased specically for your iLok USB “smart key!” The POD Farm 2
Plug-In license activates the POD Farm 2 and POD Farm Elements Plug-Ins for Mac
®
or Windows
®
computers. Upgrade pricing is also available for owners of POD Farm 1 Plug-In. If you don’t already
have an iLok key, you can purchase one at most stores where audio software is sold, or directly from
iLok.com. To follow are the steps for purchasing and conguring POD Farm 2 Plug-In and your iLok.
What is an iLok?
The iLok Key is a proprietary USB hardware dongle that holds licenses for software protected by PACE
Anti-Piracy’s Interlok
®
system.
The iLok USB Key
If you own an iLok and purchase the POD Farm 2 Plug-In for iLok, you can use the iLok USB key
to store your POD Farm 2 Plug-In license, as well as any other Mac
®
and Windows
®
iLok-enabled
software licenses, all on the one iLok USB key. The iLok is portable and allows you to run POD Farm 2
Plug-In on any computer, without the need for Line 6 hardware. It is also easy to manage all your iLok
software licenses at iLok.com - where you can set up a secure account, view all licenses on your iLok
key, take delivery of new licenses, and even move them between multiple iLok keys!
Create an iLok Account
If you’ve just purchased a new iLok, your rst step is to go to the iLok.com site to set up an account.
Note that it is important you use only ONE iLok.com account, even if you own multiple iLok keys!
Create your account here. If you already have an iLok account, then you’ll use it for the following steps.
Next, for a new iLok USB key, you’ll need to download the iLok Client Software and the iLok Driver
and install them. There are a few different options here, depending if you want to manage your iLok
on the same computer as you plan on actually using POD Farm 2 Plug-in on or not. Please see the steps
outlined on the iLok.com Help page for the complete instructions.
