Thanks Larry. I wanted, but forgot about Bob Rocks EXD. I wanted it when it came out but for some reason I can't remember, didn't get it then. I forgot about after that. You posting this reminded me of it.

You're probably correct on this part I over looked, the GUI!! The more I thought of it, it also may contain some of the VIR technology as well. But very limited I would think. They may go all out and give a really great feature set in AT5 CS like they did with ST4 CS.

Nigel, I think he got the message around that second or third post!!! 🤣 [edit] Forgot to add, good video Reid!!

I just don't understand all the confusion. It has been said very clearly that AT5 SE will allow use of previously owned AT collections. And it will be "updated/converted/" to the new and improved AT5 version. They won't give that away I think. So I wouldn't hold out hope AT5 CS is gonna give you anything new. It will probably allow you to demo the new stuff. If you need more info, go to the IK website and put in a support ticket for Sales.

Oh.. duh!!

You mean DSP? Or PSP?

I changed all my info on that site and let it go. Not using them anymore.

@abacab I have ST4 and SOC, give me a few days and I will try to repro it and see if I can get it to crash. I have had issues with freezing. Will see what I come up with.

Yes. The only alternative is like you say, is to include NEW WAV files for all existing cabs. And that may not be out of the realm of possibilities.

I am not a programmer Larry, but I think the easiest way to do it would be to include all the new and updated IR in with the VIR technology, not an actual IR file, but calculations in the VIR tech. When it's told to load a certain file, it will apply the calculations already in the code to that file and out comes the "New and Improved" IR. Don't hold me to it now, but I think that's how they are doing it.

Won't let me use the code. Says "The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase."

We can agree 100% on this. They are just not very good at making it clear as far as what's in a latest version, of what ever. ST, AT, TR. Like I said in an earlier post, I looked around at the info presented and realized that AT5 SE and AT5 have the core features in common. AT5 SE just doesn't have all the new speakers that are available. But it has the VIR tech to make all my old stuff into the new stuff just like AT5. Matt pointed out that IK doesn't seem to do upgrades. You just get a new license for the new product/version. So if you buy AT4 now, you will get a license for AT5 SE, not an 'upgrade'.

Have had this happen to me. Report to support, they ask did you try in a new project? Won't do it on a new project, but it still does it in the old project.

What makes you believe that it will only happen if you have the MAX designation? The MAX designation only shows that you have all the products, not what features you have.

If you use them in AT5 they will!! It's simple. Good deal you found too!!

I don't think this is accurate. I believe that if what your saying is correct, then they would be selling different versions of the collections, depending on which version of AT your getting it for. And that doesn't make sense! A new buyer will buy AT5. Likes it and wants the JH Collection. Do you really think that the JH collection will not allow him to have the 'new and improved' VIR technology? Come on, think about this for a minute. It has already been said that anything you already own will run on the new engine, Even the SE version! [edit] And anything you will buy will run on the new engine.

That was a good one!! I'm gonna jump on this. That Plop filter should come in handy!!LOL

@Max Arwood have you tried using the Version Organizer in WC under Settings? Also try to reset in Cakewalk under Preferences/Files/Vst Setting/Scan Options/Reset then do a Scan after.

Using the max Jampoints you can bring it down to $105 USD.

Da King is correct on that. No one seems to be able to answer that question clearly.

I wouldn't say 'limited' functionality. You just ain't getting all the new goodies. It will work just as well with AT5 SE as with AT5. I do understand and agree with you on the marketing. But we are talking IK here!!

Thanks scook

Yep, that's what I did. Same here. I keep coming back to AT. I looked at all my options and decided it was worth it for me too.

From what I can see, but don't hold me to it, is nothing. I don't think there is anything 'exclusive' to AT5 MAX. It's just everything, all products together. And one of those products is AT5

@scook do you know what this means when it says custom configuration?
