Licensing

Source-Nexus Suite is subscription only. It is now available as a monthly or yearly subscription, with a few different options. Users who own a perpetual license for a previous version of Source-Nexus can upgrade to a subscription plan. The update is included for all existing Source-Nexus subscribers. 

There are two licenses for Source-Nexus Suite. The iLok license, required for all the software components, is called “Source-Nexus Suite.” The account license, required for Source-Nexus Gateway, is called “Source-Nexus Suite.“ 

Users with a Source-Live subscription are also able to access Source-Nexus Gateway. 

A free, fully featured 15 day trial is offered to all new users. Users can sign up through the Source Elements website. To activate the iLok trial license, install Source-Nexus Suite and when prompted to activate, select “Try” on the iLok activation screen and follow the prompts.
