terrible terrible, I can't believe they mess up with ilok, but what's worst, they aslo ask for f** USB dongle, my god.. their plugins are great, but cmon, these stupid things make people think opposite way.. also, there is missing simple approach as in the pluginboutique, where you can just DL the stupid trial in a 1 minute, and test that plugin.. without this, it's losing its potential.. it literally discourage people to even try that plugin, when they have to buy stupid usb

Dear Slate-Digital-Team! Dear Slate-Digital-Team! As a user I was confident in the subscription kind of thing that SD offers from the beginning. It gives a little bit of a feeling to invest in the company and the software that is being developed. Nearly any of those software plugins is useful in my daily workflow. Personal drawback could be the awareness "just to own a license and not a valid product." But as the quality compared to other such products maintains -future looks bright. Best regards

Please find a solution soon Please find a solution soon! I mean really soon for the iLok Dongle for perpetual licenses. It makes having the few Slate plugins I own useless. I really hate the Dongle. I have over 600 license from other companies that can either use the cloud or machine licensing. It’s been almost a year since you said you were working on a solution. Come on already! Get her done!

Steady Slate customer for around 5 years so far… I've been a Slate customer for around 5 years so far. The All-Access Pass, VSX and the Steven Slate Drums packages are all state of the art, easy to use, have concise tutorials if you're not sure how to use something and their support team is prompt, professional and knowledgeable. Although I am pretty much just a hobbyist, I have been mixing music off and on since the 1970s. I trust Slate. I think you can too!

Great! What can I say...they offer a subscription package that gives you tons a great plugins, reverb, mastering tools, and some amazing synths as well. They sound great but also look great :) . A full package that suits newbies (with a small monthly payment you get all you need) and pros (the quality of the plugins is amazing). So is a massive "yeah"! The plugins and presets seems mainly focused on rock / pop, I would love more presets for sound designers and film composers. Anyway, that is purely a suggestion, I absolutely love SLATE's stuff!
