    Im about to buy syntronik 2 se with 11 synths in it. If i register them before the gb ends i must be in it right?

    No I don't think that will do it, unless I am mistaken. I am pretty sure you need to buy one of the synths at $49.99 to get in the GB. On the other hand it seems to me buying Syntronik 2 SE is unneeded here. Just install Syntronik 2 CS, buy one synth at $49.99 (minus jam points if you have some) and you will get in and get ALL the synths if this goes all the way. As it stands you already get 28 free synths along with the one you will buy. No need to spend any cash on SE with the GB.

    Edit: I just checked and SE is just $39.99, so I understand that you are trying to get in for cheaper than $49.99. Not a bad idea, but I doubt that it would work. Just $10.00 more to make sure it works is not that much.

    Edit 2: if you do try it, let us know how it worked out.

    Hi

    I downloaded Amplitube 5 free a couple of months ago and last weekend, I upgraded it to Amplitube Max.

    After spending time enjoying the different sounds and settings, I decided It was time to start recording.

    Everything started off fine, however,  the more track I recorded, the audio started to crack, this has got worse with the more tracks I have added, causing audio dropout.

    I have set everything correctly,  buffer size  ASIO etc, I can make the cracking stop by putting most tracks on standby via the fx bypass rack, this would be no problem if I was mixing or Gain staging. I have tried setting the buffer size to maximum,  during playback and it is still cracking.

    For some recordings it would be fine to have no effects as I can add them later, a little bit like reamping, however,  the song I am currently working on, really needs effects, as it needs them for the recording vibe.

    If any can help me fix this,  I would be more than happy. 

    Cheers

    The CPU usage of Amplitube 5 has been discussed in this thread. And in last summers group buy thread, if I remember correctly.

     

    @rsinger is right that changing the routing decreases the CPU usage. It is a known bug that I have reported to IK last September. It has yet to be fixed though. And in any case you would have to do it every time you start your project. There are 2 other solutions:

    • if you are not using the latest stuff, Mesa Boogie 2 and the X pedals, you can revert to version 5.0.3 which uses quite less CPU
    • or, as you are done with a track, freeze it before working on a new track.

  3. That would mean, if you take the GB out of the equation for now, that someone who would buy synths through the custom shop and ends up, after a while, owning everything would never have the multis even if he paid much more than for Syntronic max.

    I know it is a not a real scenario, but the possibility is there and seems a bit unfair if someone ended up buying all the synths through CS and not have everything.

    I wouldn't be surprised if it goes all the way to 33.  The pace seems to have picked up since they extended it.

    And they sent another GB promotion email today. 👍

     I have Syntronic 2 and didn't know it. Goes to show how much I use this lol. 

    So I guess I'm into this for 11 synths to get the equivalent of MAX unless those selections are not in the selection pane.

    Check under the products tab. You may only have Syntronic CS like me:

    You would need to be in the target group of the email, and if you are already participating in the group buy you are likely excluded from emails trying to get you to participate, since we are still emailing literally hundreds of thousands about this.

    So now everyone knows I haven't entered the GB yet! 🤣

    Just thought I'd mention that I have not seen any emails about this topic yet, although I am currently receiving registration and support emails from IKM.

    Not actually a concern for me personally, as I know what's up, but you may not be reaching all of your intended audience...

     

    The email came in for me a few minutes ago.
