From the first post.

Oh. I might have got mixed up with the deal cut off.

Was this a time limited offer?

I remember reading somewhere that it could be redeemed till December 11, 2020 but it seems to have disappeared from my Focusrite account.

Well, I finally got into Steiny site. Nothing on my free SL6 -> SL7 upgrade.

Wrote MAGIX and they replied back that I will see my activation code within a week or two. ?

Did you purchase SL6 via the Samplitude Pro X4 Suite + Free Steinberg SpectraLayers Pro 6 promo ?

I had written to Magix and they did not confirm that their license of SL6 could be upgraded to SL7 for free, when the latter is released.

I've only tried the Bias FX and Bias Amp LE versions and was very happy with the tones that both churned out. But as others have mentioned the GUI is very sluggish and I avoid using it for that very reason. Never upgraded to the full versions because of that. Maybe the version 2 is better.

shut the Cab section down, quality 3rd party Cab IR, and tricked up a bit

Is this essential to improve tone with Amplitube 4?

I tried using it recently and all my tones were sounding very thin, whether used clean or with gain. I was mostly using presets.

Next I tried cycling through all the amps but it showed no improvement. Wondering if I was doing something wrong there.

The license is not attached to anything. You do not need to download anything right now. In fact what you are downloading now is the Microsoft Media Creator which is used to download the current version of Windows 10. You can do that any time. Squirrel your license away and use it when you need to activate Windows 10 at a later date.

Any idea that, if there is no deadline on activation, then what might this be referring to:

Extended Download Option: $3.95

More info24/7 secure access to your store order, always find the latest version of your software, plus all updates, for 2 years from purchase and the ONLY way to access your order from the store post-order

Has anybody availed this till now?

Well, another year of Groove3 for $20 .... sure! 

Would this be accessible in case we order from outside the US? I mean, would the 1-year pass be a code or would it be included inside the box as well?

All three (Breaktweaker, Iris, Trash-2) are also included in the Music Maker's Bundle at PluginBoutique for $49. You also get Neutron Elements, Ozone Elements, RX Elements, Nectar Elements and Stutter Edit in the bundle.

Might be a better deal for someone looking to buy more than one product.

What is the difference between the Retail and the OEM version?

The latter I believe is tied to a machine once it has been installed and cannot be used on another one. Does Retail allow reinstallation on a new machine?

Glitchmachines Convex is on sale for $9

Convex is a multi-effects processor designed to facilitate the creation of contorted artifacts, syncopated patterns and skewed digital textures.

Based around three classic effects; multimode filter, pitch shifter and delay, Convex generates dynamic variations of the input signal by crossfading between two instances of each effect and modulating their key parameters using an extensive array of control modules.

From mellow dub delays to mind-blowing glitch sequences, Convex brings a broad range of exciting effects to your sound design arsenal.

Loc-Ness by Tone Emprire on sale for $29

Drum/Percussion Processor 

The Smash Box.

What does it do?

Drums…, the most crucial part of your mix that can make or break a track.

For decades pro engineers have used various combinations of compressors, pre-amps ,eq’s and saturation to make styles of sounds that stand out. Not just a compressor or eq, Loc-Ness is the mystical plugin that brings all the right controls and colors for drums to your workstation .

This is a dedicated channel designed for processing Individual Drum Hits, The room sound, and the entire drum bus.

Will have to email as I bought it like 4 days ago

Oh. Shouldn't take that long. No harm in following up.

Am on the fence about picking up some upgrades myself as I've already bought a lot of stuff this month and am on a cool-down period now.

On 6/4/2020 at 3:42 PM, tom said:

so I bought the upgrade from WG Jr to White Grand and its showing in my order history but nothing is showing in my downloads, do we have to wait for orders to be approved manually?

The Upgrade page mentions:

You can buy upgrades as downloads, but the links will not be visible in your download area until the order has been verified and cleared for upgrade.

The links will be available in your download area within 24 hours

There's also the ongoing $99 RX7 Standard Crossgrade from any Elements product.

Ozone 9 Elements was given away for free recently by Sweetwater and then at Splice, so anyone who picked that up would have a good crossgrade route. 

Edit: Watchout for the RX 7 Standard Upgrade from RX Elements though which strangely is at $269. Unless I am missing something here ?

How do you get the magazine?  They send me a link that goes to Falkmedia but no magazine.  

Never mind.  I was clicking the link in the wording and not the picture.  

Am having the same problem. I've subscribed but I can't see any link to download the magazine. Can you please help?

edit: Just got the email with the download link to the magazine. Guess it takes some time to come through.

As long as you've downloaded all of your sounds from your User Area -> My Products section of your IK Multimedia account you should be good to go. I just checked the OXa and it should only have 14 Arpeggio related presets. Keep in mind though, there are a lot of Arpeggiator presets included. These can be used with any instruments in Syntronik for some unique sounds. use the LOCK next to the Arpeggiator preset name to retain he Arpeggiator setting while changing through instruments.

Thanks. I've already had a look at those. I'll definitely be exploring them further.

I just wanted to confirm if I was missing on some dedicated arpeggio presets for any of the synths. For eg. The DCO-X and the T-03 are just showing 2 each at my end.

It is also available for $34 here as part of the ongoing Softube sale

Includes the sonible entropy:EQ+ as freebie (worth $99) at checkout.

This is the full OXa which is in Syntronik (not free).  It is a 49.99 value, not a cut-down version of the OXa synth.  You get the full OXa plus the other features of Syntronik like the arpeggiator, a comprehensive set of effects, and more.

Hi Peter

I have the full version of Syntonik and noticed that there are about 5-12 patches at most under Arpeggio for each synth. Is this the normal count or have I missed out on something?

It's up at JRR too.

So Sampletank 4 seems pretty nice. One thing I'm struggling with is reading some of the text. I very much prefer the dark look but some of the lettering is very difficult to see. Anyone else?

+1

Some features appear only if your hover the mouse over the designated space. I don't find the GUI very intuitive. ST3 was much easier to figure out.

Stagecraft's Infinity Synth is on 80% sale at Plugin Boutique. Currently at $10.

(Add Sonible's entropy:EQ+ as freebie at checkout).

The manufacturer page also has some free plugins (Delay, Bit Crusher and Filter).

I got Magix Music Maker as  Humble Bundle deal some time back. I would not recommend it to anyone, not even a hobbyist. 

The base package is quite barebone and it will prompt you to buy more sound packs to get things going. The interface too could do with an overhaul.

No idea about the Video Bundle though.

Edit: Current Movie Studio is at Version 17. The bundle here says version 15.

Am unable to get past the Form. I've tried several times. Anyone else have this issue?

Edit: I've tried the link in Firefox and Microsoft Edge. Nothing happens when I click on download after filling up the form.

Also watch out for the download bundles that they put out from time to time. The content in those represents incredible value for the price you have to pay for it.
