I only needed this to get to 10.  So you all can stop now.  Thanks. 😁

As someone once noted, it is not all about you.

Hey! This is falling too far down the page!

There's still another month left!

KVR has now passed us on page count too.

Wondering whether IK should change the phrasing here for clarity's sake. As it looks now, people might think that if the total hits 25,000 they get a 25th freebie.

Maybe something like, "And so on, up to 24,000 participants and above, which would give 25 titles for the price of 1!"

Just a thought.

This has already been discussed. The final levels have not been revealed yet, but they will not be multitudes of 1000.

Is the qualifying products list the same as the free list? If I had to get a duplicate produce could I sell them with a IK selling license? 

Anyone else have info on the this promo and the custom shop?

The qualifying list is not quite the same as the free list. There are some products that can be use to join the GB but not be chosen as a freebie, for example ARC System 3 with Mic, the  Electromagnetik and the Cinekinetik bundles. None of the Max products are in the GB. The link Charlie gave you has all the information regarding the GB. You cannot sell any of the free items you receive in the group buy, but I believe you can sell the item you used to get you into the GB after 90 days.

The Custom Shop is software you can install using the IK Product manager and allows you to buy certain items for Amplitude, T-Racks and SampleTank, or even the software itself. Not everything you can buy in the custom shop qualifies you for the GB, so you have to refer back to the above link. You can buy gear credits to use in the Custom Shop. It you buy 150 or more gear credits, you can get a discount. For example 200 gear credits costs you $160.  You can even use Jam Points to reduce the cost of the gear credits further. If you have enough Jam points (48), those 200 gear credits would cost you $112. You can then use those gear credit to buy something like Amplitude 5 which would get you in at the $200 level.

Yay!  We made it.

So now my posting will go back to a more normal pace 

 

Until the end of the September anyway...

This sounds like a good plan. I have Amplitube 4 MAX but I'm assuming I can just do this upgrade to the regular version of Amplitube 5, some of the gear will be upgraded, and the MAX-specific ones won't. I'm OK with that (assuming it works in general). Again, thanks a lot for saving me the disappointment of purchasing something that didn't qualify for the GB!

All your gear will be upgraded. Peter has stated so on previous occasions.

This song seems relevant to the occasion... pardon the 80's nostalgic flavour. I'm showing my age. 

Showing your age? I posted a Moody Blues song from 1968.

Thanks SO much! Hadn't thought of checking this. Was thinking the tape machines but it doesn't look like the bundle is part of  the group buy (unless I didn't make it to that page yet)... Trying to find a way to get in at the $199 level through Gear Credits. Proving more difficult than I had thought.

Buy 200 gear credits for $160 or less if you use Jam Points to buy the gear credits. Then use the gear credits to buy Amplitude 5 upgrade or SampleTank upgrade, or SampleTron 2 upgrade...

Note that the term "upgrade" is a bit of a misnomer. They are really crossgrades and you don't have to own any previous product in that line. All you need to have done is bought an IKM product for $99+.

Buyer's remorse is a terrible thing....

But so is missing out on the deal of a lifetime. 😜

You should be able to, as both are included in the Group Buy

However, the upgrade to amp5 is at the $199 level. You do not get a break by having SE.

Oh geez... I just heard the my pillow guy is about to have a news conference about the IK counter

I heard the IK counters were originally designed to tally votes for Hugo Chavez.

Now now lets I bring bad memories back for me about "Nuns-with-Rulers"    Just let the naysayers make the rounds and buy us a drink

I am good with that. I actually wasn't thinking of king Lars. Mostly on that other site which shall not be named.

And it's down again!

Sure looking like Peter knew what he was talking about when he said we would reach 10k. I hope all the naysayers come back and admit their mistake and buy in five times for penance.

Just now, InstrEd said:

If I buy in at the $149.99 (105.00 with jam points )  level this time around I pretty much will be able to get all I want/need 😆 

Do it! Do it! Do it!

I was looking at the 353 to 10 free...

Yup. That is a good thing.

The site is being worked on by our IT staff.  It should be taken care of ASAP.

I was going to say you were all crushing it but I didn't mean crushing our web site completely!!

Sure makes the rush to the end more exciting though!

I like my screen capture better!

But you only get 7 free product. That would be sad at this point.

Now it shows 9 free with 640 to go...LOL

There is definitely something weird with their counter. I could not get a consistent count on my phone yesterday at all. I just keep refreshing and assume the highest number to go I get is the correct one.
