All Access Pass

General Questions ❓

Q: What is the All Access Pass?
A: It's a subscription bundle that includes all Slate Digital plugins, top third-party plugins, all future plugins we release, and all plugin updates. Rather than paying thousands, the All Access Pass offers flexible plans:

• $14.99/month – Annual Paid Monthly (12-month commitment)
• $19.99/month – Month-to-Month (cancel anytime)
• $149.99/year – Annual Paid Upfront

Q: What’s the difference between the $14.99 plan and the $19.99 plan?
A: The $19.99 plan is a flexible month-to-month subscription you can pause or cancel anytime. The $14.99 plan offers a lower monthly rate but requires a 12-month commitment and renews for another 12-month term upon expiration.

Q: I heard the All Access Pass used to include the Relab LX480. Why isn’t it included anymore?
A: The Relab LX480 is no longer part of the All Access Pass. It has been replaced by VerbSuite Classics 🎛️, a powerful reverb plugin developed by Slate Digital in collaboration with LiquidSonics. VerbSuite Classics includes a model of the same legendary reverb unit featured in the LX480, plus seven additional reverb models.

Q: Can I still buy permanent licenses for Slate Digital plugins?
A: Yes! While the All Access Pass provides the best value, perpetual licenses are still available at slatedigital.com/vst-plugins.

Licensing & Activation 🔐

Q: How do I use the All Access Pass on two computers?
A: Your subscription comes with two activations. You can activate to:

• iLok 2 or 3 dongle
• Machine-ID (local computer)
• iLok Cloud (requires continuous internet connection)

Ensure your plugins and the latest version of the iLok License Manager are installed on both systems.

Q: I have two iLok dongles—can I activate the All Access Pass on both?
A: Yes! The two activations can be used on separate iLok dongles, allowing use on two different systems without a second subscription.

Q: I just purchased the All Access Pass but didn’t receive an iLok activation code. What should I do?
A: Slate Digital does not use activation codes for the All Access Pass. Your licenses are automatically deposited to the iLok ID linked to your Slate Digital account after checkout. If you don't see them:

• Verify your iLok ID was entered correctly
• Sign in to the iLok License Manager to check

Microphone Software 🎙️

Q: Is the mic software included in the All Access Pass?
