Please open a ticket as it should have automatically been placed in your account if you purchased and authorized SampleTank 3 SE after that date.  Thank you.

Here's hoping.  Emailing support is difficult so I emailed sales support.

i read:

"Any customer who purchases or receives any version of SampleTank 3 as part of a hardware or software bundle on or after November 13, 2018, will receive SampleTank 4 SE for free at release."

and

"Any customer who purchases SampleTank 3 SE, SampleTank 3 or SampleTank MAX on or after November 13, 2018, will receive the equivalent version of SampleTank 4 for free at release."

I registered my Sampletank 3 SE in my account but I don't see the ST4 SE version added.

Should I open a ticket at support to sort it out, or is this "version of SampleTank 3" received/purchased "as a part of a (...) software bundle" deliberately excluded from those rules?

Cheers.

 Any update on this?

That is just a sample instrument  player. You would need Falcon to load samples.

Version 2 will.

UVI Workstation is an underrated sampler.

Exactly!  Only reason to buy another comp was this one at a really good price.  Done!

 I have yet to find a reason to buy another compressor unless I want to approach having 100.

 I have an older one and they are underrated if you want portable and budget.

 I no longer buy these kinds of libraries.  There are plenty of sample packs and you can manipulate them anyway you want in a DAW like Live.  Plus you can make your and make more use of Kontakt.

I don't think that's enough for me to bite.  The issue that is dodged is what happens to you v6 licenses.   The fan boy posts are annoying.  Those who actually bought Syncron Strings say they are a disappointment on the VSL grading scale.

Well call me a fool. My upgrade was $71.  I figure the library was worth it since I only have SE versions.

I think I may have finally hit my limit with 500 or so... 

I've become a Melda fanboy.  It may take me a lifetime to get past using presets with the ones I have.

 I wonder what he paid for that one made in 1895.

@abacab Thanks for the run-down! 

I will go for Max... as that seems to be significantly more complete.  

I wanna know what you use it for.

 I'll wait for an upgrade discount or just remove this one off the too many DAWs list. I've had a license since they first started and never really used it.  Some of these features exist in other DAWs.   They jump to new versions to make even Finale jealous.  Their bells and whistles license is $499.  That's up there with Cubase and Live. IMO it's not even in the same league. 

Their vocoder is one of the best plus Gross Beat is great.

I noticed an option in disk cleanup that offered to compress the system drive to save space, but it was unchecked and I left it that way.

"Local Disk (C:) Properties > Disk Cleanup"

 I think with that checked it's suppose to compress the drive and not delete that space.

 I wouldn't ind getting the Mixx but can't spring for it even half off.  BTW buying direct gets you a 70% discount where 3rd party is only 50% on the bundles.

 On one of my systems it started to compress the OS drive.  This was never checked before.  In fact I couldn't disable it without going online to find a way to do it.  Always review what happens in a Windows upgrade.   There is no such thing a set it and forget it.

 One of these days I might get around to using some of those plugins I have.

Unfortunately, I can not open the link

ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

 I think that deal broke the net.

 I have so many delays and they seem to have so many knobs that sometimes I just use the simple ones included in DAWs. I have Melda's Specrtal and Turbo delay whch is more than I can handle.

 I got this cover off iTunes (very little information on the artist) that's an instrumental and all Latin instruments. I like this better than the original.

BTW I admire dudes who can shred on a nylon.

 How do you get the heads up on these?

Note: Just be aware that installing this with Komplete Kontrol will add a couple of new NI startup tasks to your Windows auto run list, and also adds a couple of new NI services to Windows with "automatic" start status.

I think they are put there to support NI hardware. So I disabled all of them.

Rumor has it Kontrol will eventually work with all controllers.

I never imported ST2 libs into ST3. Man is my work cut out for me when ST4 MAx arrives on the USB stick.

It's actually pretty quick.

I would absolutely prefer the case of beer!😊

 I guess for a case of beer to be $16.99 that's Mil's Best, Miller, or PBR.

Or you can rent-to-own at Splice for $16.99/mo (24 months). Pause or cancel at any time. 14 day free trial.

https://splice.com/daws/38650984-studio-one-professional-by-presonus

That's about equal to one less case of beer a month, or one less Starbuck's a week.

  I never understood using consumable examples for justifying a software purchase.   But...it would be one less 1.75L of Svedka, 12 pack of Samuel Adams, who needs Starbucks when you brew your own.  If you were one of those brilliant people who started investing in something like Starbucks when they came out you wouldn't be needing rent to own software.
